Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi cooked food at the house of a Dalit family in Kolhapur, Maharashtra. He shared the video of cooking on X on Monday. He wrote – Even today very few people know about Dalit kitchen. In the video, Rahul Gandhi is seen saying that Ajay Tukaram Sanade invited me to his house in Kolhapur, Maharashtra and gave me a chance to help in the kitchen. Together we cooked Harbharyachi Bhaji. It is also called Chane ke Saag ki Sabzi. Also made Brinjal ki Sabzi and Tuar Dal. No one knows what Dalits eat, how they cook. We talked about its social and political importance. Talking about discrimination and Sanade’s personal experiences, we discussed the lack of awareness about Dalit food and the importance of documentation of this culture. Sanade told Rahul – because someone told us to eat millets, it became expensive. Actually, PM Narendra Modi has been emphasizing on millets in his speeches. 4 pictures of Rahul cooking… Sanade said- We never vote for BJP
Sanade and Rahul Gandhi also discussed about inflation. Sanade said- Garlic has become very expensive. Someone is saying eat millets, eat millets. Because of them saying eat millets, our millets have become expensive, which was very cheap earlier. I never voted for Congress. I did not vote for Congress till 4 elections, because our belt was of farmers and laborers. We never vote for BJP either. I will never vote for them, but now the farmers party is over, that is why I also came to your Bharat Jodo Yatra. Rahul’s questions and answers to Dalit family Rahul Gandhi: There is a way to look at the caste system, I do not respect the space of those who are below me.
Sanade: I know what the upper caste people in my village eat, but no one knows what I am eating. Rahul: Do you think that everything was done for identification, so that it can be known who is what.
Sanade: Yes, in old times if someone had a black thread tied on his hand, it was clear that he was a Dalit. In the last 10 years, a lot of sharpness has come. What you will eat, even this will be decided by the government. People do not know what you eat and how you eat, that is why I have come here. Rahul: You wrote in the book that the caste culture does not request you. Tell us about this. One is that Bhaiya, we will not touch you at all. This is a direct disrespect. Another disrespect is that we do not like what you eat.
Sanade: I have a house in the village. There is a house of an upper caste person in the neighbourhood. They will come to my house, but will not eat food after coming home. Will not even drink tea. This situation is there even today. Food is linked to religion. You are big or small depending on what you eat. Rahul: Ladies cook food in the house. Their work doubles.
Sanade: Baba Saheb has also written that not everyone is a Dalit, but all ladies are Dalits. If this utensil is from an upper caste person’s house, and if I touched it, they would use it after putting it in fire. This is not an old thing. Rahul: Do you think this discrimination will ever be right?
Sanade: No, I don’t think so. Now it is increasing even more. Rahul: In South Africa, there is discrimination on the basis of skin.
Sanade: That is better, because the skin is visible. Here, everyone hides their caste. Hides their surname. Changes their surname. ——————————————————— Read these news of Rahul Gandhi meeting people as well 1.
