Congress president Rahul Gandhi will release the party's manifesto for the upcoming Karnataka Assembly polls on April 27 in Mangalore, sources told PTI on Wednesday.

During his two-day seventh leg of campaigning in the southern state, which starts April 26, Gandhi would also visit parts of Uttara Kannada such as Ankola city, Mastikatte Circle (Kumta), Saraswati Circle (Honnavar) and hold a corner meeting at Bhatkal, the party said in a statement Wednesday.

"Rahulji will release the manifesto in Mangalore the day after tomorrow. It will be an all-encompassing document," a Congress leader said, requesting anonymity. He refused to divulge more details, but added that the manifesto would have "something" for all sections of the society. — PTI
