Gandhi arrived here Tuesday evening. Present on the occasion were all the senior leaders of the party including A.K. Antony.

However, Gandhi cautioned the party leaders to see that they remained united.

“I will borrow from what Antony said and I appeal to all of you that you should embrace the party not just physically but in spirit also,” said Gandhi.

He also said that even though he has been to Kerala many times in the past, he has not been able to spend much time here. “I promise you that the next time when I come, I will spend more time with all of you. I like coming to Kerala because I learn a lot both politically and other wise ,” said Gandhi.

Gandhi who is staying overnight in the city, will meet the top leaders of his party and also the allies of the ruling Congress-led United Democratic Front. He will attend a meeting of leaders of the party and return to Delhi in the afternoon.

All the state leaders who spoke, stressed the need for lending all help and support to strengthen the hands of party president Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
