Chandigarh, Sep 20
In a surprise visit to election-bound Haryana, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday reached a nondescript village in Karnal district to meet the family of an injured man who has been hospitalised in the US for the last one year.
In the just-concluded visit to the US, the Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi met the man, Amit Kumar, who belongs to Ghogripur village of Karnal.
During his meeting the Congress MP promised Amit Kumar that he would go to his home in Haryana and meet his family.
Fulfilling his promise, LoP Rahul Gandhi landed at Amit Kumar's home at 6 A.M. on Friday, and met his mother, Birmati, and father Bir Singh.
While the Congress leader was at their house, Amit’s mother made a video call to him in the US.
After spending nearly one-and-a-half-hour with the family, Rahul Gandhi met locals and listened to their problems.
