Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is currently on the Bharat Jodo Yatra with other members of his party where they will march from Kanyakumari to Kashmir covering 3,570 km. During his journey, Mr Gandhi participated in a boat race exhibition held in Kerala.
A clip of the snake boat race exhibition, which took place in Punnamada lake, was uploaded by Srinivas BV, National President, Indian Youth Congress, on Twitter. It shows two snake boats, with men, on both sides, rowing in sync. As the camera zooms in, we can see Mr Ganadhi sitting on one of the boats and rowing. Towards the end, the boat, on which Mr Gandhi is seated, manages to reach the finish line first and beats the other group of rowers.
