Rahul Gandhi Challenges Kiren Rijiju to a Jiu-Jitsu Showdown
In a surprising twist of camaraderie, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju responded to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s birthday wishes with an invitation for a Jiu-Jitsu session. Acknowledging Gandhi’s promotion of Prime Minister Modi’s Fit India initiative, Rijiju quipped,
“I’m ready for a Jiu-Jitsu session but I won’t let you control me for a force submission. Because the essence of Jiu-Jitsu is using joint locks and chokeholds rather than striking!”
This lighthearted exchange marked a significant shift from the usual tension characterizing their interactions in Parliament. Reactions poured in, with many users on X appreciating the friendly banter as a refreshing change in the often contentious political landscape. Gandhi playfully responded,
“Thank you for the warm wishes, Kiren Rijiju Ji. When are we doing our jiu-jitsu session?”
However, not everyone viewed this newfound friendliness positively. Critics expressed their disapproval, questioning the sincerity of their rapport. One user lamented,
“Dude, that guy’s a Fraud!! why are y’all being friendly? you’ve got no Ideology?”Meanwhile, others joined in the humor, with one remarking,
“Hope Rahul, you are not jumping the ship and joining BJP!!!! I am not liking this camaraderie.”As anticipation builds for the upcoming Monsoon session, the political arena seems ready for both sparring and laughter.
