Goa-based dentist, Rachna Fernandes, who happened to be at the same restaurant as the duo said that the Gandhis were having a quiet lunch with no security guard.

“When I asked for a photograph with him, he said he would oblige after he settles the bill,” Fernandes said. Once the bill was paid by him, Rahul posed for a picture with her.

“He is too nice to be in the bad, bad world of politics,” Fernandes told IANS. She further took to Instagram to share their picture and praise Rahul for his charm and modesty.

According to a Goa Congress spokesperson, the two have no official engagements scheduled during their three-day trip.
