Maharashtra's minister of state for Home Ramesh Vagve on Friday took care of Rahul Gandhi's pair of white coloured Reebok shoes, as the latter walked up to pay floral tributes at the foot of Dr Baba Saheb Ambedkar statute near Ramabai Nagar in Ghatkopar, Mumbai.
As seen from the photographs here, as Rahul Gandhi approached the statue, he was asked to take off his shoes before offering floral tributes.
As Rahul tried to untie his shoe laces, Minister of state for Home Ramesh Vagve jumped in, untied the shoe laces, and took care of the pair of shoes till the floral tributes were over.
As Rahul returned to wear his shoes, the minister offered him his shoes and helped him in tying the shoe laces. Rahul then proceeded to attend the Dalit Youths meeting in Ramabai Nagar.
Chief Minister Ashok Chavan, MP Gurudas Kamath, Kripa Shankar Singh and other Congress leaders were present when this incident took place.
