Rahul, Akhilesh denied roadshow permission in Varanasi
The Varanasi administration has denied permission to allow Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav to hold a joint roadshow in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Lok Sabha constituency for the second time. However, the SP-Congress alliance claims that it has been called off as it coincides with the birth-anniversary of Guru Ravidas, an annual function wherein huge crowds gather in Varanasi.
