New Delhi [India], December 5 (NT): The account of Rahul Gandhi's faux pas on his Twitter handle, which appeared with tweeting a mathematically flawed post pursued by its deletion, at last ended with him issued accurate sheet tweet hours later.

Replacing the tweet wherein Rahul by mistake calculated the percentage change in prices of commodities, the Nehru- Gandhi scion posted a new tweet but steered clear of calculating percentage change and choose to depict only absolute figures.

Directly smacking to the prime minister for the price increase of essential items e.g.; cooking gas, vegetables and fuel, Gandhi aggressively tinted the variation in rates as they existed in 2014 when general elections were last conducted, and rates as they be real or overcome now in 2017.

Current data on gas cylinders, Gandhi’s scion said that cost of one cylinder in 2014 was Rs 414, whereas in 2017, it had gone up to Rs.742. after that, in place of saying, that here had been a rise of 79 percent, Rahul Gandhi inaccurately represented it as a 179 percent raise.

Here is not an end; Rahul Baba followed it up by representing that price of pulses had risen by 177 percent instead of 77 percent, the price of tomatoes had gone up by 285 percent instead of 185 percent, that of onions had gone up by 200 percent instead of 100 percent, that of milk had gone up by 131 percent instead of 31 percent and the price of diesel had gone up by 113 percent instead of 13 percent.

 In the quest to win the Gujarat polls, Gandhi has been firing an array of questions at Prime Minister Modi and asking that he give reasonable answers to each one of them. The former has also asked the latter to come clean and stop this travesty of the BJP and Centre asserting that development has only happened in Gujarat and in other parts of the nation under its direction.
