"Congress spends obscene amounts of money projecting Rahul Gandhi as a Gen Z “sex symbol” — with silly reels of him flaunting his abs, riding bikes, doing push-ups, or diving around," the BJP leader said.
He further stated that Gen Z in Nepal and India like a leader like PM Modi. "But the reality is stark: Gen Z in Nepal, like in India, aspires for a leader like PM Modi, someone with vision, conviction, and the ability to deliver," Malviya stated.
"Rahul Gandhi’s all-brawn, no-brain theatrics may work as Instagram gimmicks, but they fail miserably when it comes to inspiring the young and aspirational," he added.
In the video, the protester could also be heard saying that if Balendra Shah become comes to the power, he will bring a change. "We need Balen, that's it," a group of protesters told the journalist.
Shah is a politician and rapper, who is serving as the 15th mayor of Kathmandu since 2022 . He is the first independent candidate to be elected as the mayor of Kathmandu.
