In the afternoon, the Congress chief will interact with students of the Rajiv Gandhi Sanskrit University in Srinegri mutt.

He will conclude the tour with two public meetings in Chikkamagalaru and Hassan in the evening.

Rahul Gandhi had visited the state for the first time after becoming the party chief in December, and then twice in February, covering Koppal, Ballari, Raichur, Yadigir, Kalaburgi and Bidar districts in his first visit and Belagavi, Vijayapura, Bagalkot and Dharwad districts in the second.

On day one of his tour on Tuesday, the Congress chief had said that the policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi were “not inclusive” as he ignored farmers but waived off loans of big industrialists.

During the day, Gandhi had interacted with the fishermen community in Udupi and also visited temples and churches in the coastal region.
