Rahul Gandhi Takes Break from Campaign to Enjoy ‘Gulab Jamuns’

Rahul Gandhi made a surprise visit to Coimbatore, presumably for a meeting, and stopped by a local sweet shop. He purchased a kilo of Gulab Jamun and sampled other sweets on display, bringing a pleasant surprise to the staff and customers. Despite their insistence, he paid for his purchase and also bought the famous Mysore Pak to gift it to DMK chief MK Stalin. The visit took approximately 25-30 minutes, catching everyone by surprise.

This event was significant, given the upcoming general elections and the history of the Congress-DMK-led alliance winning a majority of seats in Tamil Nadu in the 2019 elections. The polling for the 39 Lok Sabha seats in Tamil Nadu is set for April 19, with vote counting on June 4.
