Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi finally joins Twitter as '@OfficeOfRG'?

Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi, has reportedly become the newest Indian politician to join the micro-blogging site Twitter.

Rahul Gandhi can be found on the Twitter handle @OfficeOfRG. However, no official announcement has been made so far in this regard.

Nearly, 10,300 people have followed the account at last count. However, the account is yet to be verified by Twitter. 

The account tweeted that followers would be informed about the Congress Vice President's official programs and upcoming events.

On 12th May Rahul Gandhi will begin a 15km padyatra in Telangana's Adilabad Dist- covering 5 villages,starting from Wadial Village

Since the time Rahul Gandhi returned from his 57-day sabbatical, he has been consistently targeting the NDA government and PM Narendra Modi over the Land Acquisition Bill, farmers' suicides and Real Estate Bill issues.

Meanwhile, giving 'unsolicited advice' to Rahul Gandhi, senior journalist Rahul Kanwal said,"@OfficeOfRG is a terrible idea to launch RG on @twitter Personalised medium requires personalised handle to connect well."

Kanwal also added that the Congress has begun the process of getting the account verified.

Cong begins process of getting @OfficeOfRG verified. Hopes to start posting in 48 hours. Also planning to revive tradition of Prabhat Pheri.

Why did Rahul Gandhi's Office create a Twitter handle & not Rahul Gandhi himself? Because the former has a better personality
