Rahul Gandhi made a visit to New Delhi Railway Station yesterday where he engaged with the loco pilots to discuss their concerns. Following this interaction, a fresh controversy has arisen surrounding Rahul’s meeting.
After the meeting between Rahul Gandhi and the train driver, a statement has been issued by Deepak Kumar, the Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO) of Northern Railway. According to Kumar, the individuals with whom the opposition leader interacted at the railway station were not part of their crew, but may have been from elsewhere.
In an interview with ANI, CPRO Deepak Kumar stated, “When Rahul arrived, he was accompanied by 7-8 cameramen. He visited our crew area and observed our operations. After leaving the crew area, he engaged in conversation with some individuals. There were approximately 7-8 crew members who were not part of our team, but it appears they were from outside.”
BJP said attack
Following the railway statement, Rahul was criticized by the BJP. Amit Malviya, a BJP leader, mentioned that Rahul, along with eight cameramen and a director, visited the loco pilots but did not actually meet them. It is suspected that the individuals he interacted with were hired actors brought in by his team.
