Wiping the Handle of the Washing Cup

Question

If the handles of the washing cup are wet, is there a reason to wipe them after washing one hand before holding the cup to pour on the other hand? (Because this is impure water and I have not yet wiped my hands)

Answer

Hello Rabbi

According to the law, it is not obligatory if one washes the hand with a quarter of water, and the water touches all parts of the palm.
