Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Monday stressed the need for inclusivity and equality in the country and said that Congress will protect the Constitution which gives participation and rights to Bahujans. He shared a video on ‘X’ from his visit to ‘Dalit Kitchen’ in Kolhapur, Maharashtra. In this video he can be seen helping in cooking.
The former Congress President said, “Even today very few people know about Dalit Kitchen. As Shahu Patole ji (associated with Dalit Kitchen) said, “No one knows what Dalits eat.” “Curiosity about what they eat, how they cook it, and what its social and political significance is, I spent an afternoon with Ajay Tukaram Sanade ji and Anjana Tukaram Sanade ji.”
He said, “In Kolhapur, Maharashtra, he invited me to his home with respect and gave me a chance to help in the kitchen. Together we made ‘Harabhyachi Bhaaji’ of gram greens and toor dal with brinjal.
