Rahul-Priyanka double act draws crowds to Mulugu
Deccan ChronicleWarangal: The Congress’ double act of deploying siblings Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to Telangana for the launch of the Vijayabheri Bus Yatra may prove to be a masterstroke in the poll race, as the public gathered in large numbers to hear the duo speak, with the party going the whole nine yards in bringing colour to Mulugu on Wednesday. However, when restricted by the security, they went around in bikes raising slogans of “Jai Congress”, “Jai Rahul Gandhi” and “Jai Revanth Reddy”. Villagers, including visitors from nearby areas, were excited to take part in the public meeting, if only to see Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on the same stage. Speaking to Deccan Chronicle, Kanakavva, an elderly woman, said that she came from Bhupalpally district, covering a long distance, to see “Indiramma’s granddaughter Priyanka Gandhi.” Happy just to catch a glimpse of Priyanka Gandhi, who, Kanakavva said, looked exactly like Indira Gandhi.
