Gandhi, who joined Twitter on 2015, has been using his account to focus on political issues and has been targetting the Narendra Modi-led government on development issues. He has been raising an anti-incumbency voice against the Centre.
The plenary session of the Congress in the national capital today is Rahul Gandhi’s first as the party chief and will shape up the party’s vision for the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
