Do you remember Tom Hanks-starrer ‘Forrest Gump’? The crux is that he does everything with full devotion but no one takes him seriously. In climax, he runs an unlimited race and grows his beard long. A caravan joins the race, media talks about it, but no one knows why he suddenly stops his race saying I am going for rest. A similar film is also remade, Aamir Khan-starrer Laal Singh Chadha in the Indian context with same intent.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi also started a race ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ from Kanyakumari. People joined it too. The race now has reached the national capital after completing thousand miles from its beginning. In Delhi, he meets his mother Sonia Gandhi, it seems, the mother of Forrest and Laal caresses her son. Whether the story appears same as the films but the intent of Rahul Gandhi needs to be recognised even after his grown up white-and-black beard.

In T-shirt and pant, he started his race from Tamil Nadu, covering Kerala, Maharashtra, Telangana, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan from hot to cold weather, he has visited Delhi in the chilling winter wearing same outfit. In many opinion, it shows his strong determination to change the fate of Congress in electoral politics.
After some days, the Yatra will be concluded in Jammu and Kashmir. It will be a matter of analysis how the party gets benefitted and makes his strong presence in Indian politics.
Before the analysis, let see his political stunts!
One who is born with a silver spoon can't be blamed for not doing work accordingly.
Rahul Gandhi was born on 19 June 1970 in Delhi. His initial schooling was in St. Columba’s School in Delhi. Thereafter, he studied in the Doon School in Dehradun and has been part of the University of Delhi, Harvard University, and Trinity College.
He started his political career with Congress like his mother, father, sister and other family members did.
In the opinion of many, his activity attracts people to troll him on Social Media. He never responds on saying ‘Pappu’. Comparing with other leaders, we find no leader a bit nearer to him. This is the first remarkable beauty of him-Patience.
He has crossed the age of 50 but he is still a scion of Congress. He guides the Congress workers as a mentor to unite for the good of India. It happens because he learns from every defeat and exhibits himself in the changed version containing energy and euphoria to win, which is the second one.
He joins a protest staged by UPSC aspirants, many from Hindi speaking belt, at Mukherjee Nagar demanding to increase the number of attempts and age limit in view of syllabus change. He not only listened to the grievances of the aspirants but also fulfilled, in result, attempt and maximum age for General candidates became 6 and 32.
He visited Jawahar Lal Nehru University in support of a protest that had been taken out to maintain the integrity of the university. Then, a segment of media and civil society was bombarding in the allegation of raising anti-national slogans in the campus. Then, Rahul Gandhi stood with the university students. It is his goodness that pushes him to follow the line that might go against the interest of the party.
And, the last in this list regarding electoral reform intends to be recognised. Once the court decided that if a candidate has been convicted in criminal cases for 2 or more than 2 years will be automatically disqualified to contest the election again. The decision had just delivered, and RJD leader Lalu Prasad Yadav, then an ally of UPA, had been disqualified after being convicted in fodder scam for 6 years. The UPA government led by Manmohan Singh came with an ordinance to nullify the decision, but Mr. Gandhi torn the copies of the ordinance in an election rally.
After being mocked and ridiculed in the sections of society, he enjoys the life moment and party activities happily. He cares the interest of the people. Having even gone against the party line, he exhibits his allegiance to society.
Concludingly, Bharat Jodo Yatra has reached in its middle in Delhi. His race is about to complete. Like Forrest Gump and Laal, he has grown his beard that gives him an attractive appearance. Wearing a single-type T-shirt and pant displays his personality. It has become fact that the future of congress will be decided after the conclusion of the Yatra: he takes rest as Forrest or continues his effort to keep the party alive!
