In anticipation of the upcoming mega opposition meet in Patna, the BJP has put up posters depicting Congress leader Rahul Gandhi as the iconic Bollywood character ‘Devdas’. The gate of the BJP party office on Veerchand Patel Path displays a poster featuring Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan on one end and Rahul Gandhi on the other. The caption reads ‘Babuji ne kaha gaon chor do, Paro ne kaha sharab chor do’, which is a famous dialogue from the movie ‘Devdas’.
The poster also features another dialogue, ‘Mamata didi ne kaha Bengal chor do, Kejriwal ne kaha Delhi or Punjab chor do, Lalu-Nitish ne kaha Bihar chor do, Akhilesh ne kaha Uttar Pradesh chor do, Stalin ne kaha Tamil Nadu chor do, wo din door nahi jab sab mil kahege ki Congressi (Rahul) Rajniti chor do’, which translates to, Mamata didi said leave Bengal, Kejriwal said leave Delhi or Punjab, Lalu-Nitish said leave Bihar, Akhilesh said leave Uttar Pradesh, Stalin said leave Tamil Nadu, and the day is not far when everyone will say that the Congress (Rahul) should leave politics.
This poster war in Bihar has been ongoing since Thursday when the BJP targeted opposition leaders scheduled to attend the opposition meet. This warm-up interaction of non-BJP parties is ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. The BJP’s postering of Rahul Gandhi as Devdas has added a humorous twist to the political campaign leading up to the meet.
In conclusion, the BJP’s poster of Rahul Gandhi as Devdas has sparked a poster war with the opposition parties ahead of the mega opposition meet in Patna. With the addition of humor, this political campaign is heating up in Bihar.
