Here's why Congress, Rahul Gandhi adopt 'Shiv bhakt' image

Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Monday held a roadshow here in Madhya Pradesh's capital city with his party workers putting up posters and banners describing the 48-year-old leader, who just returned from a pilgrimage to Kailash Mansarovar, as a 'Shiv bhakt'.

Gandhi, who has recently been accused of adopting 'soft Hindutva' plank to appease the majority community, embarked on his roadshow after taking blessings from 11 Hindu priests.
