According to party sources, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will likely start a two-day trip to Ladakh on Thursday. According to the sources, Rahul Gandhi will travel to Ladakh on Thursday and Friday for two days.
Rahul Gandhi had previously made two trips to Srinagar and Jammu in Jammu and Kashmir, but he was unable to make it to Ladakh. However, the party source did not disclose any additional plans. Rahul traveled to Jammu and Srinagar in January of this year as part of his Bharat Jodo Yatra. In February of this year, he paid a personal visit to Jammu and Kashmir once more, but was unable to make it to Ladakh.
The Congress leader is also likely to embark on a Europe tour, covering three countries namely Belgium, Norway, and France from the second week of September, sources said on Friday.
According to sources, the Congress MP will visit Europe in the second week of September, where he will be meeting European Union Parliamentarians, the Indian diaspora, and university students.
He will be visiting Belgium, Norway and France, they added.
This international trip follows his 10-day tour of the US that started in May of this year. During his previous trip, the Congress leader visited three cities: San Francisco, Washington, DC, and New York, where he met people from the Indian diaspora, venture capitalists, and lawmakers, among others. Since his speech at Cambridge University in London earlier this year, in which he claimed that Indian democracy is under pressure and under attack, Rahul Gandhi has come under fire for his international travels.
