Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra were stopped at the Ghazipur border while en route to violence-hit Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh. The Congress leaders left Delhi at 10:15 AM, but their convoy faced heavy traffic and police barricades at the border, leading to a massive jam. Sambhal authorities had requested nearby districts to halt their journey, citing restrictions due to ongoing violence. The Gandhis were aiming to meet victims’ families, but the authorities invoked Section 163 to prevent their entry. Congress leaders criticized the move, calling it an infringement on their democratic rights.
