'When will you get married?'Congress Chief Rahul Gandhi is very well aware with this question. In fact, there has rarely been any media or public interaction where he has not been asked about his wedding plans.
On Tuesday, however, he stumped many when he said that he was already married! Yes, during an interaction with journalists in Hyderabad, when prodded over his marriage, Gandhi said that ‘he was married to Congress party.’
He said that priority for him right now is to defeat Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP in 2019 General Elections. On his famous hug inside the Lok Sabha, Gandhi said that this was his way of telling people that Congress doesn’t believe in ‘hatred.’
This is not the first time Gandhi made a cryptic comment over the marriage issue. Last year, while attending the 112th PHD Chamber's annual session & awards for excellence 2017 in New Delhi, Gandhi had candidly said ' (Shaadi) Jab hogi, hogi' (When it happens, it will happen).
The Congress president was on a two-day visit to Telangana to gear up Congress unit ahead of elections next year. Gandhi also held separate interactions with senior leaders and booth committee presidents in Hyderabad.
Gandhi, who is on a two-day visit to Hyderabad, his first after becoming the party President, addressed a tele-conference with the party's booth-committee presidents in the state, Congress sources said.
He was given a 15-minute presentation on the Leader Development Mission in Reserved Constituencies (LDMRC) undertaken by the party in Telangana.
LDMRC aims at promoting leadership from backward communities.
The Congress President had one-to-one meetings with a number of senior leaders, including MPs, MLAs, MLCs and ex-MPs focusing on ways to strengthen the party, P Sudhakar Reddy, Deputy Leader of Congress in state Legislative Council told reporters here.
Reddy said he stressed on better coordination and unity among party leaders and workers to take on rivals.
Gandhi held an interactive session with Women Self-Help Groups (SHGs) yesterday.
He promised to support the women SHGs if the Congress came to power after next year's Legislative Assembly polls in Telangana.
He addressed a public meeting at Serilingampalli last evening where he said the party, if elected to power, would honour the commitments made to Telangana and Andhra Pradesh in the Andhra Pradesh Re-organisation Act.
