Indian National Congress leader Rahul Gandhi visited the St Theresa College in Kerala's Kochi on March 22. While interacting with the students, Gandhi demonstrated some principles of Aikido, the Japanese martial art. The politician is reportedly a 'black belt' in Aikido. Gandhi made some students line up and try to push another one on her knees. The Congress leader then used it as a metaphor to say that women must try to find strength within themselves to fight society which tries to repress them. Gandhi is campaigning in Kerala ahead of Assembly elections. Watch the full video for more.
