Rahul Gandhi Showed His Torn Kurta At A Rally And Twitter Had Some Rib-Tickling Reactions

Indian Twitterverse just loves Rahul Gandhi. From turning his picture into a meme to calling him out for taking a nap, they have done it all to the Vice President of the Indian National Congress. So when RaGa visited Uttarakhand for a rally, things took an obvious turn.

Congress Vice President, Rahul Gandhi was in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand on Monday, addressing a rally for the upcoming assembly elections in the hill state. During his address, while taking a jibe at PM Modi, Rahul Gandhi showed his torn kurta to the public and said,

“Mera kurta phata hua hai…lekin Modiji ka kurta kabhi phata hua nahi milta. Bade paisewalon ke saath unki photo milegi”

 

Here is a tweet with a picture, if you were wondering how he did that.
