Rahul Gandhi amused as woman offers to get him married to a Tamil girl

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and several other members of the party, who are on a 150-day long Bharat Jodo Yatra to protest against rising prices and unemployment, have been interacting with people on the way. Congress MP Jairam Ramesh shared an amusing incident that took place when Rahul Gandhi was interacting with a group of women in Tamil Nadu.

During the interaction, the woman said that since Rahul Gandhi loves Tamil Nadu, they are ready to get him married to a Tamil girl.

“During Rahul Gandhi’s interaction with women MGNREGA workers in Marthandam this afternoon, one lady said they know RG loved Tamil Nadu & they’re ready to get him married to a Tamil girl,” Ramesh tweeted.
