Calling it a "good decision", Rahul Gandhi posted a thank you note for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is set to visit Kerala's landslide-hit Wayanad on Saturday.
PM Modi will visit Wayanad to review the relief-and-rehabilitation efforts and interact with survivors.
"Thank you, Modi ji, for visiting Wayanad to personally take stock of the terrible tragedy. This is a good decision. I am confident that once the Prime Minister sees the extent of the devastation firsthand, he will declare it a national disaster," said Mr Gandhi, who until recently represented Wayanad in parliament.
