With just weeks to go before Gujarat elects a new Assembly, Rahul Gandhi is in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state to spearhead the second leg of the Congress's election campaign.
Gujarat has been governed continously by the BJP since 1998, when Keshubhai Patel became chief minister. Narendra Modi, Anandiben Patel, and Vijay Rupani led the next three governments in Gandhinagar.
