A 28-second video of Rahul Gandhi has been doing massive rounds on social media. Rahul Gandhi can be heard saying in the video, “You must have seen in pictures of Gandhiji (Mahatma Gandhi) that he is photographed with three or four women. But have you seen a picture of Mohan Bhagwat with a woman? Have you? It’s impossible.”<\/p>\n

BJP leader Kapil Mishra shared the video taking a dig at Rahul Gandhi. (Archive link<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Alt News scoured the Indian National Congress YouTube channel in search of more information on this video. On September 15, 2021, Rahul Gandhi addressed a gathering of women on Mahila Congress Foundation Day. Scenes from the viral clip appear in the full video at the 17:52 mark<\/a>. After the portion viral on social media, Rahul Gandhi explains why Mohan Bhagwat is not seen in the presence of women – \u201cBecause his organisation (RSS) suppresses women, it crushes them. But our organisation gives a platform to female empowerment.”<\/p>\n
