New Delhi: Congress MP Rahul Gandhi who is leading the Bharat Jodo Yatra aimed at "uniting India" was recently asked by a fellow padayatri about which sunscreen he uses. A glimpse of the conversation was shared in a video by Bharat Jodo's official Twitter handle. A young man asked Rahul which sunscreen he used before venturing on his daily journey. Rahul said he doesn't use sunscreen and went on to show his tanned arms. He further said that his "mum" Sonia Gandhi had sent him sunscreen but he hasn't used it yet. In a sit-down chat with those walking alongside him, Rahul Gandhi spoke about how he communicated with people despite language barriers, his intention to show he cares, and the distance covered each day.

Rahul and the padayatris also discussed how a few people got blisters on their feet after walking long distances. One of the yatris also asked what Rahul Gandhi does in the chunk of free time after the yatra from 7:30 pm to 6:30 am the next day. Rahul revealed that he exercises and reads on most days. He also calls his mother, sister, and friends for a chat.
