In a first, after losing in the recently conducted Lok Sabha elections, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi will be paying a visit to Amethi. His visit is scheduled to take place on July 10.
The sources from the grand old party have revealed that he is likely to be accompanied by his sister and Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra during his visit.
Also, the sources said that he will not address any public meetings but will hold meetings with party workers in the State. Congress MLC Deepak Singh said, “Rahul has always treated Amethi as his family and he is coming to meet his family members. It is not a political visit.”
The move by Gandhi is an indication that he has not yet given up on his family turf Amethi and his visit is a move to boost the morale of the party workers who have been in despair since the party’s defeat in the general elections.
