Office of RG Twitter handle renamed to just Rahul Gandhi

Ahead of the 84th Congress Open Plenary Session, the official Twitter handle of Congress president Rahul Gandhi was renamed from @OfficeOfRG to @RahulGandhi this morning.

Rahul Gandhi's Twitter has been gaining massive popularity for his sarcastic bantering and highly opinionated open criticism of the ruling government.

Agrarian crisis and increasing unemployment will be the major planks on which the Congress party will fight the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, especially since the party has gained in rural areas in the various polls held in the last eight months.

The Open Session, which will be attended by the delegates of both the All India Congress Committee (AICC) and Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC), will also set the tone for the grand alliance against the ruling party.

Apart from the political resolution, United Progressive Alliance (UPA) chairperson Sonia Gandhi will speak at 3 pm at the plenary about Congress's strategy to reach out to like-minded parties and the idea of a grand alliance for 2019.

Here's his latest tweet about the Congress Plenary Session:

Welcome delegates and distinguished guests to the #CongressPlenary.

Over the next two days I look forward to interacting with you and to sharing experiences and perspectives that will together help us build a stronger, more vibrant Congress party.

Jai Hind.
