This is part of the Congress leader’s surprise visits in recent months, which he is doing since the culmination of over 4,000 Km Bharat Jodo Yatra.
Earlier this month, during his six-day tour to the US, Gandhi rode in a truck from Washington DC to New York with a Punjabi truck driver.
A month ago, he took a late-night truck ride and travelled from Delhi to Chandigarh with a Punjabi driver to understand their lives, experiences, and daily hardships.
Earlier on May 10, he went to Delhi University’s PG Men’s Hostel at lunchtime and ate food with them.
