Former Congress president and member of Parliament Rahul Gandhi has said there is no specific strategy behind his discussions with experts that are being telecast on his party's social media platforms.

Reacting to a question from ANI, Gandhi said: "Usually, I talk to a lot of people, and many of them have conversations which are quite interesting. I thought that I should show a glimpse to the people of India of those conversationss. This was the basic idea. I wanted to show people the experts I am interacting with and what I am getting to learn. There is no strategy behind it."


Rahul Gandhi has started a series of conversation with the experts from various fields like economy, science, social service and politics to discuss the situation in the country after the spread of Covid-19. Two of his episodes of conversation with former RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan and economist Abhijit Banerjee have been telecast in which he talked to both the experts about the impact of the virus on the economy amid lockdown and how to revive the economy.

According to Congress sources, the series will follow the conversation with German virologist and several personalities from other fields also on Covid-19.
