The Congress president later wished the mediapersons a speedy recovery and tweeted: "I also want to wish the journalists injured in a mishap during our road show a speedy recovery."
I am overwhelmed by the love and affection of the people of Wayanad in Kerala, where I filed my nomination today for the Lok Sabha. Thank you for your support & warm welcome!

Rahul Gandhi, earlier in the day, filed his nomination from Wayanad with his sister, Priyanka, for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. He is contesting from the southern district in addition to his party bastion, Amethi.
The nomination was followed by a roadshow which saw a massive crowd greeting the Congress leaders with party flags and slogans.
Addressing the media later, Gandhi said he had come to Kerala as he wanted to send across the message that 'India is one'.
"I thought I should give a message that I will fight from both North and South India. And that India is one," he said.
