New Delhi, July 20: Congress President Rahul Gandhi, in his speech in the No-Confidence Motion against the Narendra Modi led NDA government in Lok Sabha on Friday, ended his speech dramatically as he walked across the aisle and hugged Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was stunned for a moment but quickly called Rahul and shook hands with him.

Rahul Gandhi in his speech targeted the Prime Minister on a number of issues and called the promises made by the Prime Minister as jumlas (False promises). But the dramatic end made by Gandhi to his speech, by hugging the prime minister, is sure to give rise to mixed reactions. For the moment, it's a field day for Memewalas on Twitter.
