He said a number of PCCs in several states have already come out with the plea that Gandhi, who is in the midst of the Bharat Jodo Yatra, be elected unanimously as president of the party.

The 'red-colour ration cards' are meant for the poor, including families living below poverty line (BPL), while the yellow-colour cards are meant for other categories.
