What Happened
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi visited Prayagraj on Saturday to participate in the Chhatron Ki Goonj programme held at the K P Ground. The event was designed as a direct dialogue between the Leader of the Opposition and thousands of students preparing for competitive examinations. During the session, Gandhi addressed concerns regarding the current state of employment, the integrity of recruitment exams, and the challenges faced by students from economically weaker backgrounds.
The event is part of a broader campaign by the Congress party to highlight issues of unemployment and administrative delays in government hiring. While many attendees expressed appreciation for the focus on youth grievances, some participants questioned the potential for these promises to translate into concrete policy actions. The programme follows similar outreach initiatives conducted by Gandhi in other cities, including Kota and Dehradun.
