Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi Sunday arrived in Odisha on a two-day tour.

Hundreds of Congress workers and leaders greeted him and gave him a rousing welcome when he landed at the Biju Patnaik International Airport here.

Gandhi is scheduled to address a public meeting, interact with party leaders and workers and hold road shows during his tour as he kick-starts his party's campaign in the state for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
