New Delhi, January 12: Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Dubai tour, addressed a gathering of Indian workers at the Labour Colony in Dubai. He guaranteed that he will grant special status for Andra Pradesh if voted to power in the upcoming general elections.

Rahul said, “As soon as our government comes to power, we will give special status to Andhra Pradesh.”

“You helped India, Indian states and the poor people and you worked to make this city of Dubai, which is great in the whole world. I want to say thank you heartily,” he said.

Hailing the development of the UAE, Gandhi said all the “massive developments you see here, tall buildings, large airports, and metro, wouldn’t have been built without your contribution”.
