Sonia Gandhi at Congress Rally in Varanasi

Thanks for welcoming at this rally. Before coming to this rally I went to Swami Swaroopanand Kutir which is symbolic of freedom movement in India. There I paid my tribute to the freedom movement leaders. Thereafter I was to take part in the Congress Convention. But as all of you know due to inclement weather the venue had to be changed. Now all the State Congress leaders are present here. I trust the discussions that took place in the Convention were fruitful. The decisions taken in the Convention will be useful to face challenges that we have to in the coming days and it will give more strength and direction to work effectively.
