Rahul Leads Yatra in Bihar as Sister Priyanka Rides Pillion on Bike
The Congress’s ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’ in Bihar has entered its 11th day, and party leader Rahul Gandhi has taken to the streets to lead the charge. On Wednesday, Rahul Gandhi led the yatra from Darbhanga to Muzaffarpur, but this time, he did it in style – with his sister and MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra riding pillion on a bike alongside him.
The juxtaposition of the tranquil Bihar landscape and the high-octane politics was a sight to behold as Rahul Gandhi, clad in a white T-shirt and khaki pants, rode a bike with Priyanka Gandhi Vadra seated behind him. The video of the duo has gone viral, with Rahul Gandhi even helping Priyanka wear a helmet before setting out on the journey.
The yatra, which started on November 1, is a bid to connect with the people of Bihar and highlight the issues plaguing the state. Rahul Gandhi, along with Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and other party leaders, has been traveling across the state, meeting with voters, and listening to their grievances.
The presence of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is a Lok Sabha MP from Uttar Pradesh, added a new dimension to the yatra. Priyanka has been actively involved in the party’s affairs, and her participation in the yatra is seen as a move to boost the Congress’s chances in the upcoming polls.
RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, who has been a key ally of the Congress, rode alongside Rahul Gandhi during the yatra. The combined presence of Rahul, Priyanka, and Tejashwi sent a strong message to the people of Bihar, highlighting the Congress-RJD alliance’s strength and unity.
The yatra has been a platform for the Congress to highlight the issues plaguing Bihar, including the lack of employment opportunities, inadequate healthcare infrastructure, and poor education facilities. Rahul Gandhi has been holding rallies and meetings with voters, listening to their concerns, and promising to work towards addressing these issues if the Congress comes to power.
The yatra has also seen Rahul Gandhi engaging with local artists, musicians, and cultural icons. On Wednesday, he met with renowned Bhojpuri actor and singer, Pawan Singh, and even danced to a few of his songs. The Congress is trying to connect with the people of Bihar on a personal level, and these kinds of interactions are seen as a way to build bridges and create a rapport with the voters.
The yatra has been gaining momentum, with thousands of people turning out to attend the rallies and meetings. The Congress is hopeful that the yatra will help them regain lost ground in the state, where they have been struggling to make an impact in recent times.
As the yatra continues to travel across Bihar, Rahul Gandhi’s leadership and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s participation are being seen as a shot in the arm for the Congress. The party is banking on the yatra to energize its campaign and connect with the people of Bihar on a deeper level.
