Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will be in Wayanad on Tuesday, the first visit to his constituency since being disqualified as an MP. He will be accompanied by his sister and AICC general secretary Priyanka Gandhi.
As per the party sources, Rahul will address voters in front of the MP office in Kalpetta at 3.30 pm. He will also take part in a road show which will have national and state leaders of the Congress attending it. Hundreds of party workers from all over the state will also be present.
There are also reports that the party workers will use national flags instead of party flags in the rally. A letter written by Rahul is also being delivered by the party workers to every household in the constituency.
In the letter, Rahul attacks the Union government, stating that his fight against the RSS and the BJP will continue. He also urges his voters to overcome every crisis unitedly.
Scindia attacks Rahul
Meanwhile, Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia on Monday accused Rahul Gandhi of being a "troll" after the Congress leader sought to link him with the Adani row. Scindia, who switched sides from Congress to the BJP, urged Rahul to answer three questions posed to him instead of levelling "unfounded" allegation and diverting people's attention from main issues.
"It is clear that you are now limited to being a troll," Scindia, once a confidant of Gandhi, said. He also asked why Rahul was no apologising for his "derogatory" comments about backward classes? "Instead, he says he is not Veer Savarkar and will not apologise. Insult of a patriot and so much arrogance," the BJP leader said.
"The Congress has always pointed fingers at courts and why are you now putting pressure on them for your selfish interests," he asked.
"Why should the rules be different for you? Do you consider yourself a first class citizen? You are so consumed by arrogance that appreciating even the importance of these questions is beyond your understanding," Scindia said, targeting Gandhi.
This comes as Rahul took a dig at leaders who jumped ship by attaching an image carrying the names of these leaders. "They hide the truth, that's why they mislead everyday! The question remains the same - whose Rs 20,000 crore benami money is in Adani's companies?" Gandhi asked in a tweet, citing the names of Ghulam Nabi Azad, Scindia, Himanta Biswa Sarma, Kiran Kumar Reddy and Anil K Antony.
