After distributing the two-wheeler, Gandhi could be seen taking a ride pillion on a girl’s scooter and surrounded by other female students riding the scooter.
The video of Rahul Gandhi taking a ride pillion on a girl’s scooter has been shared widely on the internet.
Earlier in May this year, Rahul Gandhi took a joyride on a delivery boy’s scooter in Bengaluru as he hopped in the man’s two-wheeler and rode pillion.
In a video that was widely shared on the internet, the Gandhi scion, who was campaigning for the Congress ahead of the May 10 elections in Karnataka, was seen surrounded by a large crowd of supporters and party workers in the heart of Bengaluru city.
The former Wayanad MP then stops to console a little boy who apparently became emotional after meeting Gandhi and in the meantime a delivery man stops near the Congress leader as he’s comforting the kid.
Then, in the spur of the moment, Rahul Gandhi hops on the man’s scooter and puts on a helmet as the two slowly ride through the swarm of the leader’s supporters.
According to reports, Rahul Gandhi rode a pillion with the delivery agent for nearly 2 kms before he dropped the former Congress chief at his hotel.
The videos of Rahul Gandhi’s spontaneous scooter ride with the delivery agent went viral on social media with users appreciating the Congress scion’s down-to-earth style of connecting with people.
In another video, Rahul was also seen with the truck drivers on foreign soil and rode from Washington DC to New York with truck driver Taljinder Singh. During the 190-km long journey, the Congress leader and the truck driver exchanged their views regarding the working conditions of Indian and American truck drivers.
