Rahul Gandhi has released a video about how his late father and former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi used to meet people, but now in the era of social media, the people's voices were suppressed, he alleged.

He said, "So the tragedy of politics of today is that, in a world of media, in a world of WhatsApp, in a world of Twitter, in Facebook, that voice is basically suppressed." In the second video released within two days, he showed the picture of Rajiv Gandhi, where he can be seen talking to people, "This picture here. He's listening. Right, so it was constantly listening and he would make these connections -- he would be in this crowd, listen and then suddenly, he would say okay this can be transformed with this instrument," he said.
