As Rahul was walking in the yatra which going from Jhingar Khurd in Tanda to Gaunspur in Hoshiarpur of Punjab a man came in and tried to hug him and he was immediately pushed back. In a video one could see that a man in a orange and yellow hoodie jacket ran towards Rahul Gandhi and tried to hug him but was pushed away by the Punjab Congress President Amarinder Raja Warring and other congress workers who were walking along with the Gandhi scion.
But the Punjab Congress President Amarinder Singh Raja Warring said that there was no security breach at all Rahul Gandhi while walking calls people and the people are checked and let in. “It seems like that one enthusiastic man just came to hug him,” he said.
Meanwhile senior officials of the Punjab Police also denied that there was any security breach as they said that the person who came was called by the Rahul as he calls people while walking. “No one can break the security cordon and get near the Gandhi scion till, till one is invited to meet him,’’ they added.
Senior Congress leaders including Warring, Harish Chaudhary and Raj Kumar Chabbewal were seen accompanying Rahulduring the yatra that will halt for the night at Mukerian.
A similar breach had been reported during the Delhi leg of the yatra.
Then the Congress wrote to Union Home Minister Amit Shah alleging security breach and demanded immediate steps to ensure the security of Rahul and others taking part in the yatra. But then responding to the allegations by the grand old party the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) ruled out any security breach and alleged that Rahul violated the security guidelines during his Yatra.
“Violations of laid down guidelines on the part of Rahul Gandhi have been observed on several occasions and this fact has been communicated to him from time to time,’’ a statement issued by the CRPF stated.
