Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took a 'truck trip' again, this time in the United States. Taking to Twitter the former MP of Wayanad, Kerala, shared snippets from a video blog that was shot on his 'truck trip' in the United States with interesting anecdotes, and a common love for slain rapper Sidhu Moosewala's songs.
Popular Punjabi singer, rapper, and congress politician Sidhu Moosewala was shot dead in Jawaharke village of Mansa district on Sunday, May 29, 2022 by unidentified assailants. The incidents took place a day after the Punjab police withdrew the security of 424 people including the singer too. Moosewala's death came just two weeks after the release of his new song titled "The Last Ride."
Born as Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, the controversial Punjabi singer had contested unsuccessfully from Mansa on a congress ticket in the Assembly elections in Punjab. Moosewala hails from Mansa and joined the Congress party with much hype and hoola in November.
Notably, Rahul Gandhi's journey in the truck during his recent visit to the United States came days after he took a truck ride from Delhi to Chandigarh to listen to the problems of truck drivers.
Gaining rising popularity for his humble interactions with the commoners of India, Rahul Gandhi also connected with the Indian origin truck drivers in the US. The Congress leader stayed true to his image which gained momentum from his significant Bharat Jodo Yatra.
As Rahul Gandhi continues to bridge gaps and champion the cause of the marginalized, his transformative approach has left an indelible mark on both Indian and global audiences.
Rahul Gandhi said that while truck drivers in India don't get respite from long working hours, and stay away from their loved ones for long durations, those in America have a system that centres around 'driver's comfort'.
