Thousands of Congress party workers were still pouring in at Ramlila Maidan in the national capital where the party held a huge rally Sunday to support the government's economic reforms and policies.

"Around 2,000 buses ferried party supporters at the gathering," a party worker said.

Party supporters converged at Ramlila Maidan for the rally from Haryana, Rajasthan and other nearby states.

Fearing congestion, traffic police specified routes to avoid till afternoon. This included National Highway-8, Dhaula Kuan Ring Road, Ashram Chowk and Sarai Kale Khan.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi and party general secretary Rahul Gandhi addressed the rally.

''Sonia Congress says to anti corruption activists and Indians 'You
can't do anything to us. Max to max , we'll lose the next elections.
Doesn't matter. We have Himalayas of money. We'll vacation in Sicily,
Mauritius and St.Kitts. Then we'll be back ! We have ruled you for
over 50 years.There is no one else capable of ruling like us.' They
are putting their fingers in your nostrils and just shaking you up.
You just have tears in your eyes.''
