Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi, who is scheduled to address a rally at Sangareddy in Telangana on Thursday, said here on Wednesday that the place holds a special significance for him and his partymen.

"Looking forward to being in Sangareddy tomorrow (Thursday), a place that holds a very special significance for me, for Congressmen and women across the country," said Gandhi in a tweet.
