Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has trimmed his hair and beard for the first time since his 12-state march, ahead of his lecture at Cambridge University, where he is a Visiting Fellow of the Cambridge Judge Business School (Cambridge JBS). Gandhi, who landed in London on Tuesday for a week-long tour, will speak on the subject “Learning to Listen in the 21st Century”. He also plans to hold closed-door sessions on “Big Data and Democracy” and “India-China relations” with Professor Shruti Kapila, an Indian-origin Fellow, Tutor and Director of Studies at the university’s Corpus Christi College and Co-Director of the Global Humanities Initiative.
Gandhi’s images with cropped hair and a styled beard have been shared widely on social media, with some using the hashtag #NewLook. The Congress MP had let his hair and beard grow out during his 12-state march, covering some 4,000 km in over four months. The Congress leader shared his excitement about the visit, saying that he is looking forward to delivering a lecture at Cambridge JBS and engaging with some of the brightest minds in various domains, including geopolitics, international relations, big data and democracy.
Gandhi last addressed the University of Cambridge at an event at Corpus Christi College entitled “India at 75” during a visit to the UK in May. He left for the UK soon after the Congress’s three-day leadership meet in Chhattisgarh’s Raipur.
