Devta does not mean God: Rahul Gandhi at Texas meet | WATCH

Texas: Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of the Opposition in India’s Lok Sabha, recently spoke to students at the University of Texas, sharing his thoughts on the true meaning of transparency and its role in politics.

During his interaction, Gandhi explained the concept of a 'Devta' in India.

"In India, a Devta doesn’t mean a god, as many believe. It actually refers to someone whose inner feelings are completely in line with what they show to the world—a person who is entirely transparent. If someone expresses openly everything they believe or think, that’s what defines a Devta," he daid.

Gandhi also touched upon the complexities of politics, stating, "What’s interesting about our politics is learning how to control your own ideas, fears, greed, or ambitions, while also observing the same in others."

Rahul Gandhi arrived in Dallas, Texas, on Sunday for his three-day US visit. The Congress MP was welcomed at the airport by Sam Pitroda, Chairman of the Indian Overseas Congress, and members of the Indian diaspora.
