One social media user commented, “I have never seen Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay, but watching Virendra Kumar reminds me of how he must have lived.

Simplicity and humility define his lifestyle.”
The viral video has sparked admiration, with many calling him a true example of grounded leadership.
Minister travelled in public bus last month
