Prayagraj: A chaotic scene unfolded during the joint public meeting of Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav at Phulpur constituency in Uttar Pradesh. The event, held in Padila, witnessed a stampede-like situation as Congress and SP workers lost control and attempted to climb the stage. Broken barricades and an excited crowd added to the frenzy.
Leaders Leave Without Addressing the Crowd
Despite repeated appeals from Akhilesh Yadav and Rahul Gandhi, party workers remained unruly. The leaders engaged in a brief discussion among themselves but were unable to restore order. Consequently, both Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav left the venue without addressing the crowd.
Urgent Security Measures
Police and security personnel struggled to contain the situation. The visuals from the scene captured the chaos as workers jostled and pushed forward. The incident highlights the intensity of the ongoing Lok Sabha polls in Uttar Pradesh.
Call to Support Ujjwal Ramansingh
In the aftermath of the disruption, Rahul Gandhi urged the public to vote for Ujjwal Ramansingh, the Congress candidate from Prayagraj. He emphasized the importance of standing against the BJP-RSS workers at the polling booths and securing victory for their candidate with a substantial margin.
