A Twitter user has now stepped forward, unveiling the driver’s actual affiliation with the Indian Overseas Youth Congress and casting doubt on the veracity of Gandhi’s assertions.
NEW DELHI: During his recent visit to the United States, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi undertook what he dubbed the “American Truck Yatra,” highlighting his journey alongside an alleged ordinary truck driver who had reportedly left India due to dissatisfaction with the BJP and for lack of job prospects.
However, fresh information has come to light, indicating that his highly publicized American Truck Yatra from Washington DC to New York was meticulously planned as a public relations (PR) event.

1. Recently Rahul Gandhi has visited the USA and he has claimed that he has traveled with a normal truck driver.
But he was not a normal truck driver!

A Twitter user has now stepped forward, unveiling the driver’s actual affiliation with the Indian Overseas Youth Congress and casting doubt on the veracity of Gandhi’s assertions.
Following Rahul Gandhi’s announcement, a Twitter account known for trolling and political commentary made a suggestion that the truck driver accompanying him was actually a supporter of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) who expressed dissatisfaction with the party’s communal politics and failure to generate jobs in India.

Similarly, an individual associated with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) posted about Rahul Gandhi’s apparent ease and comfort in the company of the so-called “common truck driver.”
However, a new thread by a Twitter user showed that neither was the truck driver ordinary, nor was the meeting an organic intimate meeting as some of the troll pages were making it out to be.
The Twitter thread unveiled the true identity of the driver as Taljinder Singh Vicky Gill, who holds the position of President of the Indian overseas youth congress America.
This revelation contradicted the initial claim that he was a regular truck driver.
A photograph shared within the thread depicted Taljinder Singh Vicky Gill alongside Rahul Gandhi during what appeared to be part of Bharat Jodo photo-op.
Further adding to the skepticism surrounding the event, it was revealed that Taljinder Singh Vicky Gill had previously served as the NSUI vice president before assuming his current role. This information raises pertinent questions about the authenticity and purpose of Rahul Gandhi’s claim to have embarked on a journey with an everyday truck driver.

During a three-city tour in the USA in the first week of June, Rahul Gandhi aimed to connect with the Indian diaspora. However, his meetings faced criticism as concerns were raised about the purpose and impact of his international visits, particularly his criticism of Indian democracy on foreign soil. The Indian Overseas Congress, USA, had previously denied allegations of representing specific religious groups, emphasizing their autonomy and inclusive approach. They stated that the “Congress party does not believe in dividing people based on religion, welcoming individuals from all backgrounds to participate in their upcoming events.”
