Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi has found himself placed in a catch 22 situation where he has been caught napping today while there was a debate on price rise in Lok Sabha.

BJP leader Shahnawaz Hussain said," Congress was asking for a debate on price rise,when the debate happened Rahul Gandhi was sleeping."

Meanwhile the Congress came out in Rahul's defense as it slammed the media for telecasting these images. Senior Congress leader Rajeev Shukla said, "Lok Sabha TV could have avoided broadcasting this. Such things do happen in Parliament. This is low level journalism.
