Rahul Gandhi's 3-day Kerala visit to begin today
India Today
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is set to visit his parliamentary constituency of Wayanad in Kerala for three days beginning today.
A week after activists of SFI, the students wing of ruling CPI(M), vandalised his office, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi will visit his constituency Wayanad on Friday, party sources said.
During his three-day visit, Gandhi will attend various programmes in his constituency including the inauguration of a farmers' bank's building in Mananthavady and UDF Bahujana Sangamam in Sulthan Bathery, they said on Thursday.
Gandhi, who will reach Kannur International Airport on Friday morning, will be received by the Congress leaders led by KPCC Chief K Sudhakaran.
He will return to Delhi from Kozhikode on Sunday.
A protest march of the SFI against Gandhi's office at Kalpetta last week alleging his inaction on the issue of Eco-Sensitive Zones around forests had turned violent as a group of activists allegedly entered the Lok Sabha member's office and vandalised it.
The Congress had alleged that the Wayanad MP's office was vandalised with the knowledge of the Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.
Raising the issue in the State Assembly on Monday, the Congress-led UDF had disrupted the proceedings, forcing the Speaker to adjourn the House for the day.

A prominent seer, Pranavananda Swamiji, alleged that mutts backing Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar to take over the top post were denied any allocation in the state budget presented by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. He reiterated his support for Shivakumar to take over as the chief minister.

India's original Dhurandhar, Ravindra Kaushik, rose from acting at college theatres, to infiltrating the Pakistan Army as a RAW Agent. He provided critical intelligence on Pakistani troop movements and the country's nuclear programme, but died a lonely death after his betrayal and subsequent capture by the ISI.
