A key political development has emerged in Andhra Pradesh. Senior Congress leaders are set to tour the state in February. The visit is expected to draw significant political attention.
Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi, and Mallikarjun Kharge will visit Anantapur on February 2. The leaders are scheduled to participate in public programmes during the tour.
The Congress leadership has finalised Bandlapalli village as the key location for the visit. The area holds historical significance for the party.
It was here that Sonia Gandhi and then Prime Minister Mohan Singh launched MGNREGA on February 2, 2006. The scheme aimed to provide guaranteed rural employment.
With 20 years since the launch of MGNREGA, the Congress leaders’ return to the same village has gained symbolic importance. The party sees the visit as a reminder of its welfare legacy.
Recently, the BJP passed legislation renaming the scheme as VB G RAM G, short for Viksit Bharat – Guarantee For Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission, 2025. This move has triggered political reactions.
The Congress has alleged that removing Mahatma Gandhi’s name from the scheme is an insult to the Father of the Nation. The party has announced plans to launch a nationwide campaign opposing the name change.
