Sanghi Bhakts' propaganda busted? Rahul Gandhi did not say 'Steve Jobs of Microsoft'

Speed News Desk | Updated on: 14 February 2017, 5:26 IST

Numerous media organisations reported that Congress vice president, Rahul Gandhi said Steve Jobs was from Microsoft. Gandhi was at Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS) in Mumbai, interacting with students. According to earlier reports, Gandhi made a huge blunder in his speech when he advised students to become like "Steve Jobs from Microsoft".

To those who are still unaware, Steve Jobs was the founder of Apple while Bill Gates is the founder of Microsoft.

However, contrary to the earlier reports, many media houses are now saying that Gandhi has been misquoted.

Catch spoke to Congress' social media coordinator Gaurav Pandhi who said that media has been misquoting Gandhi since morning. "The video that's going viral on the internet does not reveal what he exactly said. Gandhi never said Steve Jobs in the Microsoft", Pandhi added.

In the morning, Gandhi was trolled on Twitter for allegedly saying Steve Jobs was from Microsoft. Many on the internet called him Chatur of 3 Idiots. Some even compared him to Alia Bhatt while sharing the short video of his speech.

Twitter mocked Gandhi for saying ".One day you're going to run this country, run the institutions, you will be the Steve Jobs of Microsofts.. the Facebooks of this country."

The video of his speech is going viral on the internet and is a pure delight for netizens. Watch the short clip:

Twitter was filled with many such tweets:

However later when it was discovered that his speech was not blooper, people actually came out in his support: Inaccuracies may be hilarious, but do not last long.
