"So, I find that to be a very powerful experience.When you are walking on the road and speaking to your people, after suffering, the communication is better."For me, its been a learning experience.

It began 31 days ago but for me the learning has not yet begun.I can already see the advantages of this type of communication," Rahul Gandhi explained.

"Also, the interaction with people is the most beautiful part of the journey.But unfortunately, things I say get distorted.

When I am speaking in front of cameras, those behind it distort my words."There is tremendous wisdom among our people but it gets wasted by the kind of politics we are running.
