BJP, RSS believe that women should stay at home and cook: Rahul

Interacting with students at the University of Texas, the Congress leader said: "The BJP and RSS believe that women should be restricted to a particular role... that they should stay at home, cook food, and not talk too much.

He also observed that the RSS believes India is one idea, while the Congress considers it a multiplicity of ideas.
