Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' Event in Indore Postponed Over Stadium Permission
Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' event in Indore, initially scheduled for September 12 at Nehru Stadium, has been postponed to September 19 after the state government denied permission for the venue. Congress leaders, including Jitu Patwari, emphasized the event as a youth-focused public dialogue rather than a political rally. The denial was based on a Madhya Pradesh High Court ruling restricting stadium use to sports and state-level government events. Congress plans to find an alternative venue and mobilize students for the programme.
