Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi will participate in the valedictory function of the Bharat Summit on Saturday. The summit is being organised in the backdrop of the 80th year of India’s Independence and the 137th birth anniversary of the country’s first PM, Jawaharlal Nehru.

The two-day summit, being supported by the Telangana government under Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, will see the participation of policymakers, political leaders, thinkers and change makers from across the Global South and Global North.

Rahul Gandhi’s visit assumes significance as progressive leaders gather following electoral outcomes in Brazil, Hungary and Serbia. It is expected that Rahul Gandhi would speak on the ongoing struggle against ‘repressive and undemocratic’ governments, and explain how democratic values had shaped India’s foreign policies over the years.
