The landslide victory of Congress in Karnataka has catapulted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to prominence. His walkathon Bharat Jodo Yatra, spanning 150 days and covering 4,080 km from the southern tip of the country, Kanyakumari to Srinagar in Jammu and Kahsmir received tremendous response from the public. By winning the Karnataka state, the Congress ousted the BJP from its lone citadel in south India.
The Congress’ victory evoked encouraging response from the netizens too. Several videos comparing Rahul Gandhi to Baahubali began trending on the internet. In one of the videos, Rahul Gandhi vacating his official quarters after disqualification as an MP was likened to Baahubali sacrificing his luxurious life after being banished from the empire, addressing the public with love just like Baahubali whom the public considered as a savior from miseries.
Rahul mingled with the public, even commoners, and enjoyed meals cooked by them. His humble and down to earth attitude are being praised and commended to be like that of Baahubali. Rahul’s gestures and body movements were also compared to Baahubali.
The conversation between Bijjaladeva and his son Bhallaladeva that wherever Amarendra Baahubali would continue to be a king, irrespective of the surroundings, was also depicted in the video showing Bijjaladeva as Amit Shah and Bhalladeva as Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
During the yatra, Rahul suddenly began running to instill some vigour and encouragement among the participants and even this was likened to Amarendra Baahubali’s act in the movie.
It is pertinent to note that there had been strong criticism against Rahul Gandhi that he is an ‘incapable’ leader and he even was termed ‘pappu’.
But now , the entire video heaped praises on Rahul Gandhi as a leader who loves public and understands their problems and grievances. He is construed to be a people’s leader. None can predict how and when things would change.
Now, it is time for Rahul to consolidate his image and continue his tirade against the ruling party till he achieves BJP-mukt Bharat.
