Exclusive Coverage: Rahul Gandhi Stopped by Police Outside Ambedkar Hostel in Darbhanga During Youth Outreach Visit

In a surprising twist, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's visit to Darbhanga in Bihar was marred when he was stopped by the police outside Ambedkar hostel during his meeting with local youth under the 'Nyay Samvad' program.

The visit, which aimed to address issues related to education, employment, and migration, took an unexpected turn as the Congress leader and his team were blocked by police at 2 am as they attempted to exit the hostel.

According to sources, this was not a security risk, but rather a result of over-zealousness from the police who mistakenly believed Gandhi's car to be a rival convoy. The situation was soon resolved after officials managed to explain the true purpose of the visit, and Gandhi was eventually allowed to leave.

Gandhi is on a day-long visit to Darbhanga as part of the Congress party's 'Nyay Samvad' program, which aims to engage with local youth and address concerns related to education, employment, and migration. The visit has sparked hopes that the party may be able to make an impact in Bihar ahead of the state assembly elections.

Meanwhile, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar is set to attend a memorial library inauguration ceremony in Jaipur today as part of Bhairon Singh Shekhawat's 15th death anniversary celebrations. The event is being attended by top leaders across parties.
