Oops Moment: Rahul Gandhi mixes up leaders designation during a speech

Amidst ongoing speculations about a potential change in the Chief Minister in Karnataka following the Lok Sabha elections, Rahul Gandhi’s recent speech has sparked significant debate.

Speaking at the Congress grand convention in Chokkandahalli Gate, Malur taluk, Gandhi initiated his address by greeting the people of Karnataka in Kannada. However, shortly after, the roles of prominent Congress leaders were inadvertently interchanged during his speech.

In his speech, Rahul said Congress President Siddaramaiah Ji, and Chief Minister DK Sivakumar Ji. This slip-up has provided ample material for criticism from the BJP, JDS, and various online trolls.

Despite Gandhi’s consistent criticism of the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi throughout his speech, his unintentional blunder in role identification has become the primary focus of discussions.
