Rae Bareli: Congress President Sonia Gandhi arrived in Rae Bareli on Saturday, on her two-day visit to review development projects as well as meet block presidents and panchayat members of her Lok Sabha constituency.
Some of the electorate handed over petitions to her complaining of shortage of power and lack of roads in their areas, officials said.
A large number of people lined up both sides of the road shouting pro-Sonia Gandhi slogans as she arrived in the morning.
The Congress chief got down from her vehicle at a number of places to meet the people and her cavalcade stopped at Kundan Ganj, Ganga Ganj and Harchandpur where she mingled with
the crowd, which consisted a large number of women.
She also paid obeisance at a Hanuman temple at Churawa near Bacharawan and unveiled a statue of freedom fighter Chandrika Prasad at Gandhi Vidyalaya Inter College, Bacharawan. She left the venue after unveiling the statue without speaking to reporters.
She later held a meeting with district officials at the Collectorate where she reviewed developmental projects in the constituency and also met block presidents and panchayat
members in the town.
Gandhi would tomorrow be meeting delegations at the NTPC Guest House at Unchahar and review developmental works.
