At 2:00 PM, he will attend the training camp at Prernadham Ashram, Bhavnath Taleti, Junagadh, to motivate and inspire the participating Congress leaders.

As part of the Sangathan Sarjan Abhiyan, the Gujarat Congress is holding a training camp for its city and district presidents in Junagadh from September 10 to September 19, 2025. On Thursday, September 18, Rahul Gandhi, along with K. C. Venugopal, General Secretary (Organization), Mukul Wasnik, General Secretary and Organization In-Charge, Amitbhai Chavda, President of Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee, and Dr. Tusharbhai Chaudhary, Leader of the Congress Legislative Party, will be present at the camp.

Gandhi is expected to interact with district Congress committee (DCC) presidents and senior leaders, offering guidance on preparations for the next assembly elections. Additionally, he will strategize with party workers on measures to strengthen the party at the booth level.

The All India Congress Committee (AICC) and Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) are also planning a programme for Gandhi to tour all districts in the state. These visits aim to help him establish a personal connection with newly appointed DCC presidents. As part of this initiative, he may visit their homes and share meals with their families to better understand the personal backgrounds of local leaders. DeshGujarat
