Rahul Gandhi will address five rallies: HK Patil

Bengaluru, 28 Mar 2019 [Fik/News Sources]: Karnataka Congress Campaign Committee chairman H. K. Patil on Wednesday asserted that the party is making all out efforts to rope in Congress  General Secretary, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to campaign in the state.

Speaking to reporters here, Mr Patil said, “She has not given her approval yet for our proposal to campaign in Karnataka.  Congress president, Rahul Gandhi will surely campaign in the state and has already given his approval. He will  address four or five rallies in the state.”

“We (Janata Dal Secular-Congress coalition) are hopeful of winning no less than 22 seats as the trend is clearly in our favour in the state,” he contended.
