Srinagar: Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi will be holding an interaction session with the students of the Kashmir University on Friday. Rahul's delegation will include country's top corporate chiefs who will also be addressing the students.
The event aims at allaying the fears of big business houses who want to invest in the state and create jobs in the valley. The delegation of businessmen includes Ratan Tata, Kumar Mangalam Birla, Azim Premji, Deepak Parekh and Ravi Bajaj.
This is the largest business delegation to visit the state since Independence. The political and business leaders are later expected to meet the Chamber of Commerce.
