Thiruvananthapuram, March 27 (IANS) The Congress in Kerala is waiting to infuse some star power in election campaigns in the state, with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, party chief Sonia Gandhi and vice president Rahul Gandhi expected to arrive soon.

The Gandhi family has always been the biggest campaigners for the party in Kerala over the years.
