Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi's barb aimed at BJP at recent AICC meet has hurt the sentiments of bald people in Nashik who feel the remarks smacked of lampooning the natural phenomenon.A number of bald men in Amalner town of Jalgaon district in north Maharashtra yesterday took out a morcha against Rahul's statement that "opposition can even sell a comb to a bald man".A memorandum was submitted to Sub-Divisional Officer Tukaram Hulwale by a delegation.The members said Rahul's comment, though aimed at BJP, has hurt their feelings and is smacked of ridicule.

"Baldness is a natural process. We protest against remarks made by Rahul," said Shivaji Patil, a member of the delegation.
