[WATCH VIDEO] Rahul Gandhi’s Convoy Gets Attacked, Welcomed With Black Flags In Gujarat

In a bid to console the victims of the Gujarat Floods, Congress’ vice president Rahul Gandhi went to the state. Now, the people there who were ardent followers and supporters of PM Modi utterly bashed the congressmen by pelting stones on his convoy.

Many went waving black flags as protesting his entry into the state roads.

This happened on Friday, however, according to the sources from officials, Rahul is safe. Banaskantha Superintendent of Police Neeraj Badgujar said a man threw stones at Gandhi’s car, breaking its rear glass when he was on his way from Lal Chowk to the helipad in Dhanera.

“We have detained the person who threw stones on the vehicle of Rahul Gandhi,” said the cop. Rahul left the stage in a huff after making a brief speech in Lal Chowk area of the town in Banaskantha district after protesters showed black flags to him on the face.

Congress leaders straight forwardly slammed BJP party members for the deed. Abhishek Manu Singhvi, a Congress spokesperson accused the BJP “goons” of carrying out the “dastardly” attack. He said that several cars in the convoy were damaged, their window panes smashed and an SPG man suffered a minor injury during the event.
