Compassion overrode protocol as Rahul Gandhi braked his Bhopal-bound convoy to aid a hurt auto driver Tuesday. Stepping out near his Delhi home, the Lok Sabha Opposition chief connected directly with the afflicted worker.
Ensuring medical support via instructions to his staff, Gandhi’s prompt action earned widespread praise. The driver praised the leader’s empathy, quoting him on rushing to medical care post-injury details.
Contextually, this unfolded before a Bhopal farmers’ mega-meet led by Gandhi and Kharge, protesting the interim US trade framework. Labeled a ‘forced sellout’ by Patwari, it allegedly ruins Indian growers via import surges hitting soybean, cotton, maize markets hard.
With domes, stages, and space for 250 dignitaries, the 2 PM event launches targeted drives across MP, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, and more. Patwari vows it signals Congress’s unyielding farmer solidarity against governmental lapses.
Gandhi’s split-second kindness, juxtaposed with trade war rhetoric, paints a vivid portrait of leadership attuned to both individual plights and national crises.
