The morning for Rahul Gandhi followers had a different surprise in store for them as Rahul replaced his Twitter handle from @OfficeofRG to @RahulGandhi. As a matter of fact, Rahul changed his profile picture, and this profile change comes in the wake of Congress 84th Plenary Session that started today in New Delhi.
For those of you who missed it, my Twitter handle has changed from 9 am this morning to @RahulGandhi
The @OfficeOfRG account has been discontinued.
I look forward to your feedback and comments and to continuing my dialogue with you via Twitter and other platforms.

More so, Rahul Gandhi, took his own time before he joined Twitter in the year 2015. It was only last year he got the entire twitteratti impressed with his filmy analogies and quick-witted political humour, and made a lasting impact on his followers by reaching out to them completely.
Rahul has around six million followers on the micro-blogging site which is far away from what Modi enjoys who has 41 million followers. Nonetheless, his razor-sharp potshots at PM Modi and the ruling government along with the senior ministers, are only aiding him to widen his reach and increase his cloud rapidly.
On the other hand, the BJP has alleged Rahul of using software-driven accounts or bots that generate retweets to widen his number of followers on Twitter, however, the Congress has rubbished all such accusations
