Priyanka Gandhi critises cancellation of 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' programme in Prayagraj
The Kayastha Pathshala Trust revoked permission for Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' programme, scheduled at Prayagraj's K.P. Ground on August 8.
Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi expressed confusion on Thursday regarding the cancellation of the Chhatron Ki Goonj programme in Prayagraj. She questioned the administration's apprehensions about the event. Earlier, the Kayastha Pathshala Trust had revoked permission for Rahul Gandhi's Chhatron Ki Goonj programme at Prayagraj's K.P.
Ground on August 8. The management of KP College denied permission due to academic concerns and a High Court order from August 14, 2025, which emphasized that students' academic activities should not be disrupted. The Principal informed the Pathshala that the court's order stated no disruption to students' academic activities should occur.
The management also expressed concerns over potential damage to the outdoor sports ground from rain, making repairs challenging. Consequently, they suggested rescheduling the event during the holidays to avoid interfering with school activities. Following the cancellation, Congress leader Pawan Khera claimed that Rahul Gandhi's Chhatron Ki Goonj programme would proceed as planned, accusing the BJP of attempting to hinder the event due to their fear of the Leader of the Opposition.
Khera stated, "They are afraid of Rahul Gandhi. You can see it for yourself; they are afraid of him inside Parliament, and they are afraid of him outside as well. Let them be afraid; we will continue to keep them on edge."
