The BJP leader also claimed that students were brought in college buses to attend the programme and accused the Congress of turning the event into a political gathering in the name of students
BJP Maharashtra vice-president Keshav Upadhye criticised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's student interaction in Pune, calling it a "political comedy show" and accusing him of making political statements instead of addressing student concerns. Congress national secretary Sachin Sawant responded, stating that the BJP was rattled by the event's response and losing sleep over Rahul Gandhi's growing appeal among young voters.
Upadhye accused the Congress of turning the event into a political gathering and criticized the party's past actions, while Sawant claimed that the BJP was alarmed by the unprecedented response from young people.
