Rahul Gandhi has been attacking the Centre over the three contentious farm laws that have sparked a major protest by farmers.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will be in Rajasthan on February 12 and 13 and will address two farmers’ rallies in Padampur and Pilibanga of Sriganganagar and Hanumangarh districts, the party’s state unit chief Govindsingh Dotasara said on Sunday.
Dotasara, who was in Sriganganagar on Sunday to finalise Gandhi’s itinerary, said the former Congress president Gandhi will arrive at Suratgarh airstrip and address a rally in Padampur around 11 am on February 12. He will address another rally in Pilibanga the same day.
He said the party is planning more engagements for Gandhi for February 13 – likely in Ajmer and Nagaur districts.
Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and senior party leaders will also address the rallies, Dotasara said.
