Rahul meets Nicobarese community, promises to fight against infra project

Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi visited the Greater Nicobar Island on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, and met local Nicobari community leaders at Rajiv Nagar in Campbell Bay and explained his concerns and fears about the Union government’s ₹ 92,000 crore mega infrastructure project.

Mr. Gandhi’s visit to Nicobar comes weeks after a delegation from the island visited him in New Delhi to raise issues with the way the Union government’s draft master plan is moving forward with the “integral development” project, which calls for a tourism-led economy by 2055.
