Overview
- BJPs Amit Malviya alleged Rahul Gandhi slipped away to Langkawi soon after his Bihar Voter Adhikar Yatra and shared a casual photograph as proof.
- News18 reported that Congress spokesperson Udit Raj confirmed Gandhi’s trip, with no detailed explanation offered for its purpose.
- The attack extended to historical messaging as Malviya resurfaced a 12-year-old PMO tweet about Manmohan Singh to criticise Congress leadership.
- Some outlets initially noted no formal Congress response, underscoring uneven on-record comment across media reports.
- Gandhi had concluded the 16-day Bihar yatra on September 1 after covering roughly 1,300 km, a campaign that heightened scrutiny of his subsequent movements.
