Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on December 27 inaugurated a three-day National Tribal Dance Festival in Raipur on December 27. With Rahul, Chhatisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel also attended the inauguration.

Rahul Gandhi shakes a leg at the event:

In Raipur, during the inauguration of Rashtriya Adivasi Nritya Mahotsav, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was seen dancing with the tribals at the event.

Rahul Gandhi took to Twitter and said, "This is unique festival, it is an important step towards showcasing & protecting our rich tribal cultural heritage."

Looks like every dancer needs to draw inspiration and learn a step or two.
