Gandhi will start the road show from the town of Kullu and pass through Shamshi, Bhunter, Bajoura, Aut, Pandoh among other places, said a party spokesman in Shimla late on Saturday.

He will then move to Mandi district and cover over half a dozen prominent places before winding up at Sundernagar.

Gandhi is flying into the hill state barely hours after his mother and the Congress President Sonia Gandhi held two election rallies at Shimla and Una on Saturday.

Polling for the second and final phase for the 65 assembly seats is taking place on December 19 and the counting starts on December 28.
