After Modi's 'chai pe charcha', here's Rahul's 'chane pe charcha'
April 22, 2016
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi interacted with party workers over 'laiyya-chana' - a staple snack in this part of Uttar Pradesh, giving a chance to Congressmen to coin the new term for the session - 'Chane pe Charcha'.
It is seen as a counter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's famous 'Chai pe Charcha' sessions. Gandhi, who arrived in his parliamentary constituency late on Wednesday, interacted with party workers on Thursday and visited the homes of some party loyalists to express his condolences on death of their near and dear ones.
