On the occasion of International Women’s Day, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was seen engaging in a candid conversation with female students in Kerala, where his remarks about women’s intelligence and independence quickly caught public attention online.

During the interaction, Gandhi shared a meal with the students featuring traditional Kerala cuisine served on a banana leaf, a customary style of dining in the state. The relaxed setting led to an open discussion about gender roles, decision-making, and women’s empowerment.

While speaking to the students, Gandhi remarked, “Women are generally intelligent than men, most of the times, women think long term.” The statement, delivered during the informal conversation, sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some praising the sentiment while others debating context of his comment.

Encouraging the students to assert their independence, he also said, “Don’t let men makes rules for you. You should define your own world.” His message was framed as a call for young women to take charge of their own choices and aspirations.
