Patna, 2 Sept — Congress leader Rahul Gandhi presented a new motorcycle to a young man from Bihar’s Darbhanga district whose two-wheeler went missing during the ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra.’
The Congress posted a video on its X handle showing Shubham Saurabh proudly displaying the keys handed to him by Gandhi. “When Rahul Gandhi took out a bike rally in Darbhanga, I had lent my motorcycle to security personnel accompanying him. I was distraught to learn later that my bike was misplaced,” Saurabh recalled.
According to him, two days ago he received a call from an unknown number informing him that Gandhi wanted to meet him in Patna on September 1 to present him with a new motorcycle. At first, he and his father were skeptical, but they decided to travel to the state capital, where Gandhi was concluding the yatra with a march.
The youth said he was asked to wait at the Income Tax Roundabout, where the Congress leader briefly stopped on his way to Gandhi Maidan to hand over the motorcycle keys.
“I am happy to get a brand new motorcycle, the same model as the one I lost. I am touched by the gesture coming from such a senior leader,” Saurabh said.
