Former Uttarakhand CM’s son joins Congress

Dehradun, March 16 (IANS) Manish Khanduri, the son of former Uttarakhand Chief Minister B.C. Khanduri, on Saturday joined the Congress in the presence of party President Rahul Gandhi at an election rally here.

Welcoming the younger Khanduri, Gandhi claimed that his father, also a retired Army General, was shunted out as the chairman of the defence committee just because he had raised a valid question on national security.

"B.C. Khanduri is a true son of the soil. I want to tell you that he was shunted out of the defence committee just because he had raised a question on national security," Gandhi said at the Parade Grounds rally.

Gandhi also garlanded Manish Khanduri to formally induct him into the party.
