Telangana Congress president B Mahesh Kumar Goud on Tuesday said party leader Rahul Gandhi is likely to address a meeting of gig workers when he attends the bharat summit here on November 13 and 14.
He suggested convening a meeting with gig workers. “… he (Rahul Gandhi) will come to Hyderabad either on November 13 or 14 to participate in the Bharat Summit. Amid an evolving geopolitical situation, the Congress will host experts from 70 countries for deliberations on the emergence of a new global order and India’s strategic responses to the developments, besides issues like cooperative federalism and electoral integrity.
Because the state government passed a welfare legislation for them, speaking to reporters in Delhi after meeting Gandhi, he said the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha suggested convening a meeting of gig workers.
Goud said he briefed Gandhi about the programmes taken up by the Congress in Telangana and also invited him to attend a proposed ‘mega BC rally’. Along with the Bharat Summit, he may address gig workers since Telangana passed an act,” he said. Senior Congress leader and head of the party’s foreign affairs department, Salman Khurshid, said the bharat summit will bring together around 1,000 delegates from across the world and the areas of focus include the formation of a new think tank, “Our World”. The international conference will see the participation of senior Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, global policymakers, and prominent figures from progressive movements, he said.
