Rahul even asked the child saying, "Hello! Will you take ice-cream?" 

The child could be seen in a video of the incident, shared on the social media by the Congress, smilingly accepting the offer.

Gandhi was seen wearing a back t-shirt in the video.

The video has been retweeted 2.1 K times on times.

It has earned 7.1K likes.

Rahul began his two-day visit to the state on Monday.
