Rahul Gandhi cracks Batman joke, targets Modi in Instagram AMA

Rahul Gandhi is a leader of the Congress party and the Leader of the Opposition in India's Lok Sabha.

One night, he went on Instagram to answer questions from young people, asking them to ask him anything.

Someone asked if he was Batman, the comic book superhero, and he joked that no one has ever seen him and Batman in the same room together.

He also joked about Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying the best memes from the student protests were funny midnight videos of him.

Students in Jharkhand are protesting, and Gandhi said every government should listen to students.

During the session, his mother's dog Noorie sat with him, and he said humans do not own animals but share the planet with them, deserving respect and love.

He named Captain Amarinder Singh his favourite politician from the rival BJP party.

The chat happened after he met students who had protested over an alleged test paper leak.
