CONGRESS leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday visited two families in grief-music icon Zubeen Garg's family in Guwahati and the family of Dalit youth Hariom Valmiki in Rae Bareli-calling for justice.

In Guwahati, Gandhi visited Garg's residence and "samadhi", expressing solidarity with the singer's family following his mysterious death while swimming in Singapore on September 19. "I spoke to his family and they said only one thing - that we have lost our Zubeen and all we want is that the truth should be clear," he said.
