Rahul showcases video of meeting with small business owners

Congress president Rahul Gandhi Sunday shared a video of his meeting with small business owners from around the country, which he said was to get a sense of the "problems" they face in running businesses. In his February 19 meeting, he had discussed implementation of the Goods and Services Tax, besides a host of other issues.

The interaction was part of Gandhi's outreach initiative 'Apni Baat, Rahul ke saath' ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. He started the outreach earlier this month when he met a group of seven youngsters from Delhi, Assam, Maharashtra, Kerala and Uttar Pradesh.

As continuation of the initiative, Gandhi had met the traders at Andhra Bhavan here. According to sources, the traders had discussed problems related to GST with Gandhi, who assured them that in states where there is a Congress government, their concerns will be addressed.
