"Every person has a different style of working. People should know Rahul Gandhi as a new young leader who has emerged before this country. You cannot compare his working style with others to declare that he does not have leadership quality or he cannot shoulder any responsibility," Kamat said.
Kamat said that media distorted Digvijay Singh's statement on Rahul.
"Nobody has given any statement on his (Rahul Gandhi's) image. Digvijay Singh's statement was distorted and he has already made it clear last evening that he did not mean what came out in the media," he said.
Singh kicked off a controversy yesterday when he said that Rahul Gandhi "does not have the temperament of a ruler".
