As the Bharat Jodo Yatra wound its way through the streets of Dhule, it made a poignant stop at the doorstep of a revered figure in Maharashtra’s political landscape – senior Congress leader and former minister Rohidas Patil, fondly known as Dajisaheb. Amidst the hustle and bustle of political engagements, this visit held a deeper significance – a chance for MP Rahul Gandhi to reconnect with a cherished friend and mentor, and to pay homage to a family legacy steeped in service and sacrifice.

Stepping into Dajisaheb’s home in Devpur Dhule, Rahul’s heart swelled with emotion. “Kaise Hai Daji Sahab,” he greeted, his voice resonating with warmth and genuine concern. Their reunion was marked by an embrace that transcended time and politics, a testament to the enduring bond they shared.

Amidst their conversation, Rahul’s thoughts turned to Dajisaheb’s health. With furrowed brows, he inquired about his well-being, his concern etched on his face. And in a touching gesture, he reached out to his own mother and Congress leader, Sonia Gandhi, inviting her to join the conversation and inquire about Dajisaheb’s health.

The air was thick with emotion as Sonia’s voice crackled through the phone, her words carrying the weight of a mother’s concern. “How are you feeling, Daji Sahab?” she asked, her tone filled with warmth and affection. In that moment, the boundaries of politics faded away, replaced by the timeless bond of friendship and solidarity.

As the evening unfolded, and esteemed Congress leaders like Nana Patole, Balasaheb Thorat, and Doctor Dilip Patil gathered around, the sense of camaraderie was palpable. Their presence was a tribute to the enduring legacy of Dajisaheb, a man who had dedicated his life to serving the people of Maharashtra.

But amidst the warmth and camaraderie, there lingered a shadow of uncertainty. Rumors had circulated about Rohidas Patil’s son, Kunal Patil, and his rumored dalliance with the BJP. However, this meeting served as a powerful reaffirmation – Kunal’s loyalty lay firmly with the Congress party. The bond between father and son, rooted in a shared commitment to the Congress values, remained unshakable.

As the night drew to a close, and the guests bid their farewells, a sense of peace settled over Dajisaheb’s home. In the embrace of friendship and solidarity, they found strength to face the challenges ahead. And as they looked to the future, they knew that the legacy of Rohidas Patil, a former minister and a claimant of the CM post, and the illustrious lineage of Kunal’s grandfather, Chudaman Patil, who won the first LS election with a margin greater than Jawaharlal Nehru, would continue to inspire generations to come.
