Despite being a part of the big news, Rahul Gandhi was last even on twitter trending slots.
Congress chief Sonia Gandhi is learnt to have put an end to the speculations about Rahul Gandhi being anoointed as prime ministerial candidate for the party. She has decided tat Rahul will lead the charge in campaign but he will not be projected as PM.
This information was given to media by none other than Janardan Dwivedi following whose statements speculations of Congress shielding Rahul from a possible failure against BJP candidate Modi and new party AAP ran high. The Congress party has always tried to shield Rahul from a Modi vs Rahul or Kejriwal vs Rahul debate from happening. With the fresh move of Congress supremo, it became more than clear that Congress was in dilemma and fear.
Although Rahul is always a favourite topic for tweeples, he was seen trending at the last spot despite this great news, below hashtags like #iamsomiddleclass and #blockedstories. Even #QuitAAP and AAP leader Vinod Binny was trending above him.
Here are some of the bitter-sweet tweets that followed Rahul-Sonia news:
