Rahul Gandhi meets farmers in Delhi ahead of Kisan rally
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi met farmers on Saturday to hear their views on changes being brought in the UPA's land law by the Narendra Modi government.He interacted with delegation of farmers from UP, Rajasthan, Haryana and Punjab at his office. Rahul, who returned on Thursday after his much talked about 57-day sabbatical, is meeting with farmers a day before the Congress' 'Kisan-Khet Mazdoor' rally on Sunday to galvanise protests against the NDA's land acquisition law. Rahul's return will boost the Congress' rally in the Capital against the land ordinance which has been rejected by the opposition as ''anti-farmer and anti-poor.''The rally is also being seen as a sort of a comeback vehicle for Rahul and a show of strength by the party, which has been strongly opposing changes in the original act.
