Rahul Gandhi to visit Kullu | In an endeavor to reorganize and energize the party ahead of the
upcoming Himachal Pradesh assembly polls, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi
will be arriving here on a two-day visit today. Gandhi will address a meeting
of senior party functionaries and party workers during his stay here. According
to reports, former Union Minister Virbhadra Singh, Congress MP Raj Babbar, Minister
for Road Transport and Highways P. C. Joshi and Minister for Social Justice and
Empowerment Mukul Wasnik will be accompanying Gandhi during his visit. The Congress
High Command has appointed Virbhadra Singh as the chairman of campaign committee
for the upcoming Himachal Pradesh assembly polls. Virbhadra Singh, who enjoys
the mass support across the state, is one of the strongest contenders for the
chief ministerial berth. Moreover, he also enjoys the support of majority of Congress
MLAs. Virbhadra Singh, who held the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises portfolio,
resigned from the Union Cabinet on June 26, following the framing of corruption
charges against him for allegedly misusing his office when he was Himachal Pradesh
chief minister in 1989.
