#RahulSpeaksToArnab
Jokes, parodies, cartoons and even remixes of the Q&A flooded the internet space once it concluded
Probably, #RahulSpeaksToArnab was the longest trending hashtag on Twitter when Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi was being interviewed by Times Now editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami. Frankly speaking, the RaGa tune was lost in cacophony on the micro-blogging site.
Appearing a bit nervous, the 43-year-old leader ducked many pertinent questions, ranging from his views on Congress’ prime ministerial candidate, the Adarsh scam and corruption within his own party and inflation.
Since Monday night, jokes, parodies, cartoons and even remixes of the interview flooded the internet space.

Here’s a sample:
Former IBN7 editor and Aam Aadmi Party spokesperson Ashutosh wrote on twitter “Only similarity between RaGa and NaMo is that after hearing them both speak you get inspired to vote for BJP”.
Cricketer Ravindra Jadeja without missing the opportunity commented “For once, Rahul Gandhi made Indians realize that a silent PM is better than a dumb one!”
