Congress President Rahul Gandhi filed his nomination from the Amethi Lok Sabha constituency on Wednesday. Accompanying him were his mother Sonia Gandhi, sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, brother-in-law Robert Vadra and their children. Congress supporters came out in significant numbers to cheer them on.
While the Congress president and other family members travelled in an open-top vehicle, some party leaders walked alongside it. Several of them later found that their phones and wallets had been stolen. The episode gave the Bharatiya Janata Party social media supporters a good reason to ridicule the Congress for its slogan "chowkidar chor hai".
