"Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh Governments Will Fall": Rahul Gandhi's Big Gaffe
NDTV
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi made the gaffe while replying to a question on the party's prospects in upcoming Assembly elections at a press conference.
The BJP on Monday took a swipe at Rahul Gandhi over a slip of the tongue that his party's governments in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh were on their way out, and said he had accepted defeat. Soon after the announcement of the election schedule in five states, Mr Gandhi while replying to a question on the party's prospects said the governments in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Telangana, and Chhattisgarh were going. राहुल गांधी ने स्वीकार कर लिया, राजस्थान और छत्तीसगढ़ से जा रही है कांग्रेस सरकार! pic.twitter.com/85ORupRavs
"In Madhya Pradesh, their state government is going, the government is also going in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh and also in Telangana. Sorry, I spoke wrongly. You confused me," Mr Gandhi said and soon corrected himself.
"In Chhattisgarh, we have our government and it is coming back as also in Rajasthan. but BJP's government in Madhya Pradesh is going. In Telangana too their (BRS) government is going and ours is coming. Seriously speaking, the atmosphere is very positive," he said.
