Rahul Gandhi Is All Set To Hold Rally In Karnataka

Mr. Gandhi will be in a poll-bound state for a day…

New Delhi:  On April 9, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will address a rally in Kolar in Karnataka in an issue of the Congress seeking to make a political issue of his disqualification from Lok Sabha.

Mr. Gandhi will be in Karnataka on a day PM Narendra Modi is also visiting the state.

Suat Court was disqualified in a criminal defamation case over his remarks 'Modi surname' made in Kolar in the run-up to the 2019 Lok Sabha election.

"Sh. @RahulGandhi will be in Kolar on 9th April and address the Jai Bharat Mega Rally. He will visit Wayanad on 11th April.

He is the voice of the local people; you can never shut their mouths. This voice will only get louder and stronger," Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said in a tweet.

Mr. Gandhi was elected to Lok Sabha in 2019 from Wayanad in Kerala. The party informed that it will challenge the Surat court verdict in a higher court.

Campaigning is gathering pace in Karnataka ahead of the assembly polls due on May 10.

On Friday, Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai said that the BJP will get a majority win in the upcoming elections.
