Gandhi was supposed to visit the Bihar capital on July 15 to address students as part of the “Chhatron ki Goonj” campaign, and the state unit, it is learnt, was struggling to bring enough students for the event. Although the state Congress leaders were confident of eventually managing the numbers, sources said it would have been an uphill task as Gandhi’s office was asking for details of all the students who would attend the event.© The Indian Express Pvt Ltd Tags:Delhi ConfidentialRahul GandhiAdvertisementLoading Recommendations...AdvertisementLive BlogFrance vs Morocco Football Live Score, FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarterfinal: Mbappe, Dembele give FRA 2-0 lead3 minutes agoUS-Iran War Live Updates: Iran’s attack ‘failed to cause major damage’, says US official2 hours agoWeather Live Updates: Red alert in Delhi as capital braces for more rain; flood hits life in Gujarat, Maharashtra5 hours agoIndia News Live Updates; 9 July 2026: Ex-TMC MPs Sushmita Dev, Sukhendu Sekhar Ray, Prakash Chik Baraik join BJP9 hours agoCBSE 10th Second Board Result 2026 Live Updates: Websites to check & download results10 hours ago
