Rahul Gandhi's Health Hurdle: A Message of Hope for Delhi Elections

Rahul Gandhi was unable to attend a public meeting due to ill health, sending a message urging victory in upcoming polls. The Congress leader's absence at events in Delhi and Karnataka highlights campaign challenges. Anil Bhardwaj is the Congress candidate for Sadar Bazar amidst intense competition from AAP and BJP.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was notably absent from a public meeting in the Sadar Bazar assembly constituency on Wednesday due to illness. In his stead, a message was read to rally attendees, urging them to secure victory in the upcoming elections, marking another health-related campaign disruption.

His absence was also felt at Karnataka's Belagavi rally, 'Jai Bapu, Jai Bhim, Jai Samvidhan,' and during an earlier scheduled event in New Delhi. Despite the Congress's assurance of his attendance, it was announced at the last minute at the Inderlok metro meeting that Gandhi would not appear.

Anil Bhardwaj stands as the Congress candidate in Sadar Bazar amid fierce competition from the AAP and BJP, with Delhi Congress chief Devender Yadav critiquing both in his address. Rahul Gandhi conveyed his best wishes and expressed intentions to join the campaign once his health permits.
