Former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi visited the Matia Mahal market in old Delhi and the Bengali market on Monday and treated himself to popular dishes of these areas.

The Congress leader, who returned to the national capital after two days of campaigning in poll-bound Karnataka, visited old Delhi’s Chandni Chowk, which is abuzz with activity during the holy month of Ramadan.

A large crowd gathered around the Congress leader in old Delhi. The people followed him around in the narrow streets and even raised slogans.
