Rahul will announce candidacy from Amethi after Wayanad polls: Himanta
Sarma suggested that this move aligns with Prime Minister Modi's previous assessment of the Congress party's strategy.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi condoled the murder of party leader and Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala after the latter was shot dead in Punjab’s Mansa on Sunday.
Moose Wala was shot at by unknown persons earlier today after which he was brought dead to the Mansa hospital, as per the hospital official. The incident took place a day after the singer’s security was withdrawn by the Punjab police. “Deeply shocked and saddened by the murder of promising Congress leader and talented artist, Sidhu Moosewala. My heartfelt condolences to his loved ones and fans from across the world,” Rahul Gandhi tweeted.
Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also expressed her condolences on the demise.
