A fun moment was created in Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's press conference on Saturday when a reporter asked him about the half T-shirt he is wearing in the chilling winter season.
Gandhi was taken aback by the question. He said, "Why is there so much disturbance because of the T-shirt?"
"I do not wear a sweater because I am not scared of winter. I am thinking to wear a sweater once I start feeling cold," he added. Rahul Gandhi even asked the reporter why he is wearing a sweater. The reporter said it was cold to which Rahul said that he (reporter) was wearing a sweater not because it was cold but because he fears the winter.
The reporter went to ask another question when Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said "no supplementary question". However, Gandhi allowed him to ask the question adding, "PM Modi does not do press conferences so I even give you his share of supplementary questions."
While talking to reporters, he said that he wanted to thank Bharatiya Janta Party and RSS for targeting the Bharat Jodo Yatra. Gandhi said that the more BJP and RSS target the movement, the more it helps in continuing with the Yatra.
He said that he began the Bharat Jodo Yatra as any ordinary movement from Kanyakumari to Kashmir but slowly he understood that this yatra has voice and feelings.
"When I started this, I just took it as an ordinary yatra from Kanyakumari to Kashmir. Slowly we understood that this yatra has a voice & feelings. I want to thank people from BJP & RSS, because the more they target us, it helps us in some way or the other," ANI quoted Rahul Gandhi as saying.
