New Delhi: Rahul Gandhi's recent visit to New Delhi Railway Station, where he purportedly met with loco pilots, has been revealed as a staged event aimed at misleading the public. Initially portrayed as an earnest interaction with railway personnel, it has emerged that the individuals Gandhi engaged with were not actual loco pilots from the Northern Railways, under which the station operates.
According to Deepak Kumar, Chief Public Relations Officer of Northern Railway, the crew members Gandhi interacted with were likely brought in from outside. Kumar highlighted that Gandhi was accompanied by multiple cameramen, ostensibly to film promotional material. He stated, "The loco-pilots were not from our lobby. It seems that they were brought from outside." Further substantiating this claim, a Rajdhani train driver at the station attested, "I am a Rajdhani driver and I don’t know any of them." He described witnessing a sizable group of people in loco-pilot attire surrounded by cameramen, suggesting a scene more akin to a movie set than a genuine railway encounter.
Reacting to the revelations, Amit Malviya, BJP IT cell head, asserted on Twitter that Gandhi's team likely employed professional actors for the event. Social media users echoed this sentiment, labeling the episode as a "PR stunt" orchestrated by Gandhi's team with pre-selected individuals. Ankur Singh criticized the affair as "very poor direction," emphasizing Gandhi's use of multiple cameras and a director to orchestrate the meeting. Critics lambasted the Congress leader for what they perceived as a disrespectful exploitation of a serious institution like the railways for political gain.
In response to the backlash, the Congress party's official handle defended Gandhi's visit, emphasizing his concern for railway safety and the essential role of loco pilots. However, the orchestrated nature of the event has sparked widespread condemnation, with many labeling it as another instance of political theatrics aimed at misleading the public. In conclusion, Rahul Gandhi's visit to New Delhi Railway Station has been exposed as a carefully staged spectacle rather than a genuine effort to engage with railway personnel. The incident underscores growing skepticism toward political gestures that appear contrived and insincere.
