NEW DELHI: Congress on Thursday posted an “adorable” video of Rahul Gandhi taking pictures of sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra as she headed to take oath as the Lok Sabha MP from Wayanad.
Priyanka was on her way to enter the Parliament when she was stopped by Rahul, who then took out his phone to capture the moment for his sister: “Let me also take this,” he said.
The video attracted several comments with one user saying “siblings goals activated!”
She also met Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and took his blessings.
Priyanka had thanked Rahul after she won the Wayanad bypolls. “To my mother, Robert and my two jewels- Raihan and Miraya, no gratitude is ever enough for the love and courage you give me. And to my brother, Rahul, you are the bravest of them all… thank you for showing me the way and having my back, always!” she had said.
Priyanka took the oath as a member of Parliament in the Lok Sabha, holding a copy of the Constitution. Attending the ceremony were her family members, including her mother Sonia Gandhi, brother Rahul Gandhi, and her children, Raihan and Miraya Vadra.
