NEW DELHI: Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra will be campaigning in Assam for two days from March 1, where the Congress-led alliance is contesting against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

"Priyanka Gandhi Vadra will be in Assam for campaigning on 1st and 2nd March," said her office.  On the first day, she will pray at the Kamakhya Temple in Guwahati and attend a cultural programme. During the day she will also visit Madhavdeb Janamsthan and Rangajan, and will pay homage to the Kanaklata Baruah statue in Gohpur.

After that, she will visit Sonari Gaon Panchayat in North Lakhimpur district to address party functionaries, and will also launch a statewide protest campaign for unemployed youths in Lakhimpur.

As the Congress has focused on the situation of the tea estate workers, Priyanka on the second day will interact with women labourers in the Sadharu tea estate. She will also pray at the Mahabhairav temple in Tezpur and will address a rally later.

Priyanka Gandhi has so far been confined to Uttar Pradesh, but is now on a full-fledged campaign spree and will also travel to Kerala, Puducherry and West Bengal, sources say, while Rahul Gandhi will hold the fort in Tamil Nadu.

Meanwhile, the Congress got a shot in arm after the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) estranged ally Bodoland People's Front (BPF) announced to snap ties with the party and join the Congress-led grand alliance to fight the Assembly polls.
