Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi visited the Dharavi leather hub in Mumbai and met leather industry workers and entrepreneurs. Dharavi has nearly 20,000 leather manufacturing units which employ close to one lakh people.
He is on a one-day visit to Mumbai and will leave for Ahmedabad in the morning.
Rahul Gandhi’s visit to Mumbai is said to be a private one, and no meeting of state Congress leaders has been scheduled. However, an informal interaction with the Congress leaders is likely.
Dharavi is part of the Mumbai South - Central Lok Sabha constituency represented by Congress leader Varsha Gaikwad. Her younger sister Jyoti Gaikwad is the Congress legislator from Dharavi.
One of the leather industry units that Rahul Gandhi visited is Chamar Studio set up by Sudheer Rajbhar.
Former Shiv Sena MP Rahul Shewale, termed Rahul Gandhi’s visit to Dharavi “slum tourism”.
