Lucknow, 04 December (HS). Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, who had set out to go to Sambhal, was stopped by the police at the Ghazipur border. He is also accompanied by Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and many other Congress leaders. Heavy police force is deployed here since morning. The Congress leaders stayed on the road for a long time to regain their composure. Meanwhile, Congress leaders also talked to the police officers, but nothing happened.

Rahul Gandhi, who came out with Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, told the police that I am ready to go alone in your car, but I should be allowed to go with caution. Rahul Gandhi has also talked to the DGP. Despite this the DGP refused to let him go. His convoy is stopped at Ghazipur border.

Along with Rahul Gandhi, big leaders like State Congress President Ajay Rai, Imran Masood, Uttar Pradesh Congress in-charge Avinash Pandey etc. are present. A plan was given by the Congress to allow the five-member delegation to recover. It was said that Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, KC Venugopal, Avinash Pandey and Ajay Rai would be included in this delegation. This also did not get approval from the police administration. After this, Rahul Gandhi requested the administration to let him handle things alone. However, the police administration has not yet given its permission.

Uttar Pradesh Congress in-charge Avinash Pandey said that Rahul Gandhi talked to police officials. He told the police to sit in his car and be careful. However, his demand has not been accepted by the police yet.

Meanwhile, Ghazipur border is jammed for one hour. A large number of people are facing problems on the Delhi-Meerut Expressway. Barricading has been installed by the police on the Ghazipur border to stop the convoy. Many times there were heated exchanges between Congress workers and the police to allow the convoy to move ahead. Police personnel have lined up behind the barricades in front of Rahul Gandhi’s convoy. Purnia MP Pappu Yadav has also reached Ghazipur border in support of Rahul Gandhi.

Congress workers got angry after police personnel stopped the convoy at Ghazipur border. They climbed the barricades and started protesting. They kept demanding the police officers to remove the barricades and allow the convoy to proceed. Congress leaders said that if everything is fine in Sambhal then why is there police guarding the border? Why are we being stopped? Whereas Rahul Gandhi is adamant on being careful.

Congress MP Imran Masood said that we have been stopped at the border by the administration. Nobody is doing anything. Our demand is that either the police administration should allow us to proceed or we should be detained.

Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya targeted Congress and Samajwadi Party and said that whether it is Congress or SP, those who want to do politics on Sambhal will face political downfall. Now Congress leaders will have to bear the brunt of this. Just as Akhilesh Yadav is unable to tolerate the defeat of Uttar Pradesh, similarly Rahul Gandhi is unable to tolerate the defeat of Maharashtra.
