CHANDIGARH: Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday reached Madina village in Haryana's Sonipat to attend a wedding of a farmer's daughter.

At the wedding ceremony, Rahul, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, sat on mattresses among family members.

The women sitting beside him sang songs and Rahul occasionally asked questions about the folk songs and rituals.

The Gandhi scion stayed for about half an hour at the ceremony.

Bride's aunt Kirti Jakhar told the media that Rahul was curious to know about the wedding culture and rituals "performed at weddings".

She said Rahul ate 'churma' and drank a glass of milk. The 'churma' was prepared by Sanjay's wife, Sunita Devi.
