That's the way it should be”, said Pitroda.Asked by Rajat Sharma whether he “advised” Rahul Gandhi, Pitroda said: “It's a lie. I sometimes speak to him, but to speak and to advise somebody are two different things.”Pitroda revealed he had given some tips about computer software programming language C to Rahul several years back.Asked about Finance Minister P Chidambaram saying that Rahul Gandhi was not being given proper advice and he should raise national issues, Pitroda said: “That's his privilege. wahan jalebi aur samosa hai to jalebi aur samosa khayenge”.Asked why he was refraining from giving proper advice to Rahul Gandhi, Pitroda narrated an incident that took place in 1986 in Bhopal, when he had gone there with Jairam Ramesh.“A young fellow gave us a list of advices for Rajiv Gandhi and said, if Rajiv followed the advices he would rule for the next 15 years. That document is still alive.”Asked about Rahul Gandhi mentioning his caste as carpenter thrice in a rally in UP, while releasing the party vision document, Pitroda said: “Look, Jesus Christ was also a carpenter.
