In the video he can be seen paying a private visit to Goa and meeting the puppy, who is later brought to Delhi.
“I’d like you all to meet the newest and the cutest member of our family, our little pup, Noorie. She flew in from Goa straight into our arms, and has become the light of our lives. Unconditional love and uncompromising loyalty,” he said.
“We must pledge to protect and share our love with all living beings,” the former Congress chief said.
In the video Rahul Gandhi can be seen calling it a “little surprise for Ma (Sonia Gandhi)”, he then puts the dog in a gift basket and asks his mother to come out of the house and have a look.
Sonia Gandhi then picks up the dog and takes her in her arms, saying “she is so cute”.
