Ravneet Singh Bittu, a prominent figure in the Punjab Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ranks, found himself at the center of attention as he ventured on an unexpected journey to the Prime Minister’s residence in New Delhi. Speculation surrounding his potential inclusion in the Union Council of Ministers swirled amidst his abrupt decision to abandon his vehicle and traverse the bustling streets of the capital city on foot.
The scene unfolded dramatically as Bittu’s car became ensnared in Delhi’s infamous traffic gridlock, prompting the seasoned politician to opt for an unconventional mode of transportation. In a video that quickly made rounds on social media, Bittu, adorned in a distinctive pink turban and formal attire, navigated his way through the congested streets with an air of determination, flanked by his security detail.
The footage, shared by news agency IANS, captured the essence of Bittu’s impromptu journey as he steadfastly made his way towards the Prime Minister’s residence. Despite the unforeseen setback, Bittu’s resolute stride painted a picture of unwavering commitment and dedication to his cause.
