Published by Webster

Image Source : INDIA TV India TV Editor-in-Chief Rajat Sharma Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has done it again. Two of his gaffes on Wednesday embarrassed the country’s oldest political party. His first gaffe: Rahul said, “Congress is not only fighting BJP, RSS, it is also fighting the Indian State”. His second gaffe: RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat “has the audacity” to say that India did not get real freedom in 1947.

But how can any Indian say that he is against the Indian State? …
