With Congress President Rahul Gandhi headed to his Lok Sabha constituency Amethi on Monday, a poster war has begun in town. A poster showing Rahul as Ram and Prime Minister Narendra Modi as Ravana has led to a controversy ahead of the Congress President’s visit.
Aimed at the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the message on the poster reads: “Rahul roop mein bhagwan Ram ka avatar, 2019 mein ayega Rahul Raj. Rahul is the incarnation of Lord Ram, Rahul Raj will be seen in 2019.”
Another poster shows Rahul as Lord Krishna with a message: “Sangharsh se Vijay ki or chal diye maharathi.the warrior has begun the journey.”
This is Rahul’s first visit to Amethi after taking charge as the party chief. He is likely to hold roadshows at nearly seven places in Amethi.
