Rahul wishes 107-yr-old woman on her b’day.
New Delhi: Continuing his run on Twitter, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Monday responded to a 107-year-old woman.
In a tweet, Bengaluru-based woman Dipali Sikand wrote that her grandmother had a wish to meet Rahul Gandhi, whom she found as “handsome”.
Ms Sikand tweeted, “Today my grandmother turned 107. Her one wish. To meet Rahul Gandhi! I asked her why? She whispers...He’s handsome!” with a picture of her grandmother cutting a cake.
In an unusual move, Mr Gandhi responded by tweeting, “Dear Dipali, Please wish your beautiful grandmother a very happy birthday and a merry Xmas. Please also give her a big hug from me. Best, Rahul.” He even called up Ms Sikand and spoke to her 107-year-old grandmother wishing her a happy birthday. Acknowledging the call, Ms Sikand again tweeted “And as if this was not enough, Mr Gandhi called and personally wished my Nani!! This is #TrueHumaness. Thank you all of you for the blessings for her. Each one of them matter.”
The gesture of Mr. Gandhi earned him a lot of accolades on social media. Since his return from the United States, Mr Gandhi has increased his Twitter footprint.
