'I was 16 when...': Rahul Gandhi remembers father Rajiv at Mizoram rally

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi remembered his 1986 visit to Mizoram with his father Rajiv Gandhi during a rally in Aizawl on October 16.

"My impression of Mizoram was formed when I was 16 years old when I came here with my father in 1986. The people of Mizoram are gentle, kind and affectionate," Gandhi said.

Recalling his recent visit to Manipur, Gandhi said, "Some months ago, I went to Manipur. The idea of Manipur has been destroyed by the BJP. It is no longer a state, but two states. People have been murdered, women have been molested and babies have been killed but the PM doesn't find it important to travel there."
