Hundreds of Congress supporters participated in the roadshow led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in Chikkamagaluru on Tuesday evening (May 2). The workers carrying the party’s flags walked along the roadshow and raised slogans praising Congress leaders and the candidates.
Addressing the supporters, Rahul Gandhi said that when he heard about Chikkamagaluru for the first time, he was too young. Then his grandmother, Indira Gandhi, who had contested a by-election in the place, had told him that Chikkamagaluru was a beautiful place, he recalled.
Commenting on the BJP’s manifesto, Rahul Gandhi said the party had not fulfilled 70% of its assurances made during the past elections. “The only thing they did when in power was loot the public,” he said.
