Rahul Gandhi will lead a roadshow from Dwarka Circle and deliver a public speech at Shalimar, where he will also unveil the statue of Indira Gandhi.

Rahul Gandhi addressed a crowd from his open jeep in Arvi, Dhule, on Wednesday, saying, “Congress guarantees come with a warranty” (suggesting firm assurance of fulfilling promises).Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday in Dhule district introduced five ‘Mahila Nyay’ assurances aimed at empowering women, including an annual deposit of ₹1 lakh into the bank accounts of economically disadvantaged women and a commitment to secure 50% reservation for women in government positions if his party assumes power.

Gandhi, who is set to run for reelection from his current constituency of Wayanad in Kerala, emphasised the public's call for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections to utilise ballot papers instead of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs).The Maharashtra leg of the Congress leader's yatra started on March 12 in Nandurbar and will wrap up with an event in Mumbai on March 17.
