As soon as he started his address, the audience at the Vigyan Bhawan hall began raising the slogans of “Is desh ka raja kaisa ho, Rahul Gandhi jaisa ho”. To this, Gandhi responded, “No boss, main Raja nahin hun. Raja banana bhi nahin chahta hun. Main Raja ke against hun, concept ke bhi against hun”.
