New Delhi Jan 22 (IANS) Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Monday attacked the Prime Minister Narendra Modi for only hugging "special people" not the common man.
"He call himself a common man but hugs only the special ones. Modiji why such compulsion? Farmers labourers and youths too should be there " Gandhi said in a tweet attaching photograph of Modi hugging Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The Congress President s remarks came in the wake of the Prime Minister defending his hugs with world leaders saying that he was a common man and did not know any protocol.
During the Israeli Prime Minister s visit to India last week the Prime Minister broke the protocol to receive him at the airport here and welcomed him with a hug.
