Congress leaders Supriya Shrinate, Jothimani and Sena leader Priyanka Chaturvedi slammed the trolling while actor Poonam Kaur explained why Rahul Gandhi held her hand.
As photos of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi holding the hand of actor Poonam Kaur during the Bharat Jodo Yatra in Telangana went viral with ‘derogatory’ comments, the actor shut down the trolling and explained that Rahul Gandhi held her hand during the walk when she almost “slipped and toppled”. “This is absolutely demeaning of you, remember Prime Minister spoke about narishakti,” the actor tweeted in reply to BJP’s Priti Gandhi’s tweet. Gandhi shared the photo of Rahul Gandhi holding Poonam Kaur’s hand and wrote, “Following the footsteps of his great grandfather!!”.
