Congress president Rahul Gandhi is scheduled to undertake another tour of Odisha on March 8 and address two public meetings in the state, OPCC president Niranjan Patnaik said Saturday.
Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel is likely to accompany Gandhi, Patnaik said.
Jeypore MLA Taraprasad Bahinipati said Gandhi will hold an interaction with women before addressing the public meeting in Koraput district. Issues relating to farmers, youth, dalits, women and tribals will be in focus of Congress president's visit, he said.
This will be Gandhis third visit to Odisha this year. He had earlier addressed a rally at Tomando on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar on January 24 and visited Bhawanipatna in Kalahandi district and Rourkela in Sundergarh district on February 6.
