New Delhi, Delhi, India
Congress President Rahul Gandhi visited the famous Ajmer dargah of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti on Monday.
Gandhi was accompanied by Rajasthan Congress chief Sachin Pilot and former state chief minister Ashok Gehlot.
The Gandhi family's traditional khadim (cleric) made him perform 'ziyarat' at the dargah.
Gandhi is in Rajasthan to campaign for the upcoming state elections.
Gandhi had gone on a temple-hopping spree during the Gujarat and Karnataka state elections, prompting the BJP to accuse him of doing so to try and win votes.
On Monday, Gandhi later visited the next-door Pushkar.
