Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, and the footage is now going viral on social media.
According to a Congress party worker named Amock, when Rahul Gandhi's bus encountered BJP workers, Gandhi stepped off to meet them. «As Gandhi approached, they started running back from the yatra.
Rahul gave them flying kisses while moving ahead,» he tweeted.
In another video shared by ANI, Rahul Gandhi can be seen being escorted inside the 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' bus by his security personnel and party workers, «as the Congress MP moved towards a large crowd that also included people with BJP flags.»
Meanwhile, BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya alleged in a tweet that Rahul Gandhi «lost his cool after Jai Shri Ram and Modi Modi slogans were raised in his presence.»
Later, Rahul Gandhi addressed the incident, stating, «About 20-25 BJP workers carrying sticks came in front of our bus, and when I came out, they ran away. They think that Congress is scared of BJP and RSS, but we are not scared of anybody.
They can tear as many posters and placards as they want; we don't care. We are neither scared of PM Narendra Modi nor Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma.»
Responding to Sarma's claim that he was scared of him, Rahul countered, saying the former was afraid of his alleged corruption being uncovered.
