In pics: Rahul Gandhi dives into the sea to swim with Kerala fishermen

Kollam: Amid his hectic two-day visit to poll-bound Kerala, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday ventured on a secret voyage into the sea with fishermen in Kollam.

Not just that, Gandhi spent over ten minutes swimming along with them to get a taste of their life at sea. Gandhi, who was accompanied by a personal security officer, jumped from the boat when he saw some fishermen jumping into the sea after casting their net to catch fish.
