Rahul strikes 'right notes' with NRIs in UAE
Dubai, Jan 13 (IBNS): Congress president Rahul Gandhi promised non-resident Indians in the UAE to be their voice in India addressing a gathering of Indians in Dubai during his two-day trip to the country this weekend.
Dubbing him "a rockstar politician with dreams of a new India", The Khaleej Times said Rahul "struck the right notes on pluralism and compassion".
"We are going to make sure that your voice is heard in your country," he said to loud applause.
Rahul tweeted several pictures of him holding meetings with various UAE leaders and addressing gatherings.
