Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said the Advisory Council of the OBC Department of AICC unanimously thanked senior leader Rahul Gandhi for courageously taking up the cause of social justice for the marginalised sections of society, and standing up for the cause of the backward classes in particular.
