Thiruvananthapuram: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi behaved like a "joker" during his visit in the state Monday and such a person is being projected as the prime ministerial candidate by the Congress, a CPI-M leader said here Tuesday.
Communist Party of India-Marxist state leader Pinarayi Vijayan said: "His candidature as the Congress's PM candidate is more or less finalised and yesterday (Monday) travelling on a police jeep on his state visit he behaved like a joker."
When newsmen said why can't his act be seen as a humility on his part, Vijayan shot back saying: "He is one person who is given the highest security and in the melee, a central minister (Minister of State for Labour Kodikunnil Suresh) got injured."
"He behaved like a person of unsound mind and the action should be taken against him for travelling on top of a police jeep," he said.
