Watch me when I get back: EAM on Rahul Gandhi’s remark

CAPE TOWN: External affairs minister S Jaishankar on Saturday took a swipe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his remarks in the US, saying that he refrains from indulging in politics when he goes abroad and will argue “vigorously” on his return to India.
While not naming Rahul, Jaishankar said, “I may differ strongly with someone but how I counter it ... I would like to go back at home and do it. And watch me when I get back.” Jaishankar was interacting with the Indian diaspora during his visit to Cape Town to attend the BRICS Foreign Ministers’ Meeting.
“There are sometimes things bigger than politics and when you step outside the country, I think that’s important to remember,” Jaishankar further said. On Wednesday, Rahul targeted the BJP-led government at an event in the US.
