Former Congress President, Rahul Gandhi has come out in support of Kunal Kamra after four airlines banned the standup comedian for heckling Arnab Goswami. Taking to his Twitter, Rahul Gandhi wrote, "The ban imposed on #kunalkamra by 4 airlines is the act of a coward leveraging his influence with the Govt to silence a critic. Those who use their "news" cameras as 24x7 tools of propaganda, should show some spine when the camera is turned on them."

In a video clip posted by Kunal Kamra oh his Twitter handle, he is seen asking the TV anchor if he is a coward or a journalist. While Arnab can be seen sitting in the plane and watching something on his laptop with his earphones plugged in, Kamra was seen roasting Arnab. The incident happened when the duo were travelling on IndiGo's Mumbai Lucknow (6E5317)flight. Check out Rahul Gandhi's tweet backing Kunal Kamra here.....
