Rahul’s show before NaMo’s visit



--Rahul’s two-day Odisha visit on Feb 9, 10

BHUBANESWAR: Ahead of the upcoming General Election, the national-level political parties are geared up to woo the voters by addressing them in different public meetings across the country. The two national parties, Congress and BJP, have started their preparations to welcome their top-most leaders in the State to boost the self confidence level of party workers here.

In this way, Congress party has fielded its poster boy Rahul Gandhi to address six different public rallies in the State on February 9 and 10 respectively only a day before BJP Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi’s visit to Bhubaneswar to address a public rally.

Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Jaydev Jena on Sunday confirmed the two-day visit of the Gandhi scion, but he didn’t get any confirmation about the places have been recommended by the PCC for approval. Sources said that Rahul would address meetings at Salipur in Cuttack district, Duburi in Jajpur district, Khariar Road in Nuapada district, Bisam Katak in Rayagada district and Brahmapur in Ganjam district.

Jena further said that All India Congress Committee (AICC) president Sonia Gandhi would also visit the State and would address the mass in Kalahandi in the last week of February to add colour into the show started by Rahul.

Political analysts say that it is a desperate attempt of the party to create Congress ripple before NaMo’s wave touches the voters. When Modi’s visit was set a few months ago, Rahul’s visit plan is a few days affair strengthens the people’s belief regarding Congress’s desperate attempt.

Meanwhile, the Commissionerate Police led by Twin City Police Commissioner Dr RP Sharma have started their security checkups and have reviewed traffic management ahead of Modi’s convention at Baramunda ground here.
