Not many parties can afford a leader like Rahul Gandhi. And not many people and leaders can show the innovative genius like Rahul Gandhi.
The Congress party needs to be congratulated for giving India a 'Leader of the Opposition' who talks about a 'Jalebi factory'.
During an election rally, Rahul Gandhi mentioned the idea of a jalebi factory, which quickly went viral. His comment, suggesting more people should be involved in making jalebis, sparked discussions and jokes on social media.
Jalebis need not be made in a factory or cannot be made because it is one of the 'fastest' perishable sweet item. It can be relished only when served hot. But India's Leader of the Opposition is so much detached from Indian reality that he ended up making some ridiculous comments.
A tweet from DD News says: "Jalebi has made an appearance in the Haryana elections. Rahul Gandhi visited Gohana in Sonipat amid the election fervor, where jalebis are very popular. He also ate the famous jalebi of Gohana and, praising it, said that this jalebi should be available worldwide".
"This Jalebi (of a particular shop in Haryana) should be made available nationwide and later in different forms (alag alag roop mein) Jalebis should be made available in America and Japan.
Of course BJP leader Anurag Thakur shared a 'story' of Rajiv Gandhi era vis-a-vis jalebi and how reportedly one the then civil servant I D Swami in 1985 had to face the wrath of Congress leadership's anguish.
All these 'father-son' tales seem to be quite relevant today because only a month back 'Nehru-Gandhi family confidant' Sam Pitroda has said that Rahul Gandhi is more intellectual and strategist than his father, former PM Rajiv Gandhi.
"I had an opportunity to see many prime ministers from very close quarters but the difference between Rahul and Rajiv maybe is that Rahul is much more intellectual, thinker, Rajiv was a little more doer. They have the same DNA, they have the same concerns and feelings for the people, they genuinely believe in building a better India for everybody, the Congress leader told a leading agency from Chicago.
Of course, only Sam Pitroda can make such a statement which has been stated a 'bizarre comparison'
