During a television discussion on farmer Gajendra Singh Rathore's alleged suicide at an Aam Aadmi Party rally, party leader Ashutosh broke down and urged Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Rajnath Singh and Sambit Patra, not to "politicise" the issue. While some on social media debated if the tears were for real, Ashutosh has leaders such as Modi and US President Barack Obama for company. The BJP's vikas purush and then PM-designate Modi broke down while delivering a speech in Lok Sabha last year and Obama is known to have cried not once or twice but at least three times in public view.
