New Delhi: Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Monday faced ire from a local during a road show.

rahulA man hurled shoe at the Congress vice-president during a road show in Uttar Pradesh's Sitapur. The shoe missed the mark.

The man who hurled the shoe has been identified as Hari Om Mishra. He is a local journalist.

He has been detained by police.

Reportedly, the shoe attacker was upset with Rahul Gandhi's Kisan Yatra as he feels that the Congress vice-president is aware of ground reality and plight of farmers in Uttar Pradesh.

Kisan Yatra

Rahul Gandhi is on 'Kisan Yatra' in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh.

BJP had mocked Rahul Gandhi's Kisan Yatra, dismissing it as "seasonal expression of sympathy in the season of elections" and claimed that while states ruled by it have seen maximum agricultural growth, those by Congress were known for cases of "land-grab".

Mumbai, May 22: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Friday reduced repo rate by 40 basis points to 4 per cent in an effort to further boost liquidity in the economy which has been reeling under the impact of COVID-19 induced countrywide lockdown.

As a result, the reverse repo rate stands at 3.35 per cent, said RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das. The six-member monetary policy committee (MPC) voted 5:1 in favour of the decision.

Repo rate is the rate at which a country's central bank lends money to commercial banks, and the reverse repo rate is the rate at which it borrows from them.
