Priyanka Gandhi critises cancellation of ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ programme in Prayagraj

"Don't know what they are afraid of," MP Priyanka Gandhi told reporters.

Earlier, the Kayastha Pathshala Trust revoked permission for Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' programme, which was scheduled to be held at Prayagraj's K.P. Ground on August 8.

The management of KP College revoked the permission earlier granted for the use of its sports ground, citing academic concerns and an Allahabad High Court order.

In a letter addressed to the President of the City Congress Committee, Prayagraj, Acting President of Kayasth Pathshala, Chaudhary Jitendra Nath Singh, said the decision was taken following inputs from the college principal and in view of the Allahabad High Court's order dated August 14, 2025, which stressed that students' academic activities should not be disrupted.
