Rahul Gandhi the Congress campaigner will campaign extensively in Wayayand and adjoining constituencies today.
PM Modi is also campaigning for the BJP on the other side today here.
The Congress leader who is scheduled to arrive in a helicopter at Nilgiris Arts and Science College in Wayanad, will be taking part in half a dozen election programmes in the district.
He will take part in road shows in Sulthan Bathery, Mananthavady, Vellamunda and Paschimathara. Rahul will address a farmer’s meeting in Pulpally. He is scheduled to meet the Bishop of Mananthavady in the afternoon.
The Congress star campaigner will address a public meeting organised by the UDF in Kozhikode in the evening.
This is Rahul’s first campaign programme after filing nomination papers from the Wayanad constituency. The UDF is banking hugely on his campaign in Kerala.
In 2019, Rahul wave swept Kerala with UDF winning 19 of the 20 seats in the state. While the Congress claims that the UDF will repeat its performance, the ruling LDF and BJP say the situation has changed drastically since the last Lok Sabha polls.
