Many out there must be wondering how the Congress leader feels inside about this name-calling.
During his Mumbai-leg of Bharat Jodo Yatra, Rahul Gandhi took this question from the press unflinchingly.
"It is in their heart. It shows the fear in her heart. They are unhappy," India Today reported Rahul Gandhi as saying.
While welcoming the name-calling he said that Indira Gandhi, his grandmother who was called the Iron Lady of India, was subjected to name-calling.
Before she came to be called Iron Lady, Indira Gandhi was called Gungi Gudiya, he said.
Rahul said that the same people who attack him round the clock called her Gungi Gudiya, and added that she was Iron Lady.
