Gandhi said that his progress in the present Indian political system would not have been easy if he was not "connected to somebody".
The Congress leader who was addressing students of Manipal College at the TMA Pai International Convention Centre in Mangalore added, "I am a prominent face of the problem."
Replying to a query by a student whether he would have joined politics if he was just a normal youth without the Gandhi surname, he said, "I would try to be in politics but progress would not have been easy if I was not connected to somebody."
Taking part in an hour long discussion with students whom he termed as future leaders, Gandhi agreed with the observation that the "present political system was a closed system and also one that is destructive."
He called on the students to challenge the present system to bring about a change and said, "With your help, we would like to bring these changes."
On a query regarding the influence of Mahatma Gandhi as the source of inspiration in politics for him, Gandhi said, "I like to choose the good in everybody as opposed to the bad."
Talking to the students on crucial issues including the Indo-US nuclear deal, Gandhi said he was "gaining knowledge of politics" and added "It is time to look at the rest of the world not as a challenge but as an opportunity to advance and succeed."
Agreeing that respecting various ideas in the Indian polity was needed, he said it was important for everyone to understand things before talking.
"I am in the business of respecting your ideas and would not like to talk about things I myself do not understand," he told students.
On a five-day tour of poll bound Karnataka, Gandhi has planned his programme with several interactions with students and youths.
The interactions range from those with tribals, fishermen to IT professionals, engineering students and differently-abled children.

Wake up hindu india, SONIA and RAHUL will destroy India.
Flat untrue. Mahatma Gandhi's children and grand children don't have that edege! The name Gandhi has to have attached purse with congress funds whic comes from defence contractors and at the risk of national security.
The TITLE should read -- "The Surname Gandhi get Indian Tax Payers money for fun in USA" Rahul Gandhi was arrested at Boston, USA - Logan airport on Sept 22, 2001 for carrying $ 200000 USD with his girlfriend to INDIA! He should be asked this question where did the money come from? BECAUSE he is a FAKE GANDHI!

If have self-respect, use your own Tag. Why use someone else surname, if you have self-respect? You idiot better write Raul Maino alias Raul Khan. Your father was Rajiv Khan, his father was Feroz Khan. Ignorant Bharatiya come out from traps, and learn to become leaders and rule your nation.
Eventually the Gonzo stopped deluding himself and believing in delusion of grandeur.Apart from a Gandhi surname little to show for.in the meantime shamelessly keepi milking the gravy train.Soon you will be found out that you have been conning the por and the ignorant.
This is how Nehru Gandhi Family has been fooling the nation>Rahul has learnt the trickes of the trade quite early while the others learnt little later
AL THOUGH RAHUL'S FATHER FEROZ WAS A PARSI AND BY SURNAME HE WAS GANDHI BUT THIS FAMILY HAS CASHED IN MAHATMA GANDHI'S SURNAME TO EXPLOIT INDIA'S POOR GULLIBLE MASS IF WE TALK ABOUT QUALIFICATIONS, THESE FAKE GANDHIS HAVE NONE TO SERVE MOTHER INDIA
I am ver happy that he has been humble and frankenough to admit what it takes to be a good anduseful politician.Perhaps in the days to come theyoungsters will bring about some changes.The current situation in the parliament is very sadas our MP's have converted into an 'Akhara' andon top of it no work is allowed to be done.
You and your family are made of shameless cunning idividuals. Leaches of the nation. Enjoying the fruits of power and did nothing for the people. While south Korea, Singapore, Japan were developing the nation your grand mother, father and now you divided the people, encourage inefficiency, sycophancy,corruption and inferiority complex. We have come out of the ignorant past. No chance to fool people any more. Go home to Italy to be with Quattarochis.
