Rahul Gandhi has been engulfed in controversy due to his statements earlier. Rahul quoted the Supreme Court by raising the slogan of Chowkidar Chor for PM Narendra Modi in the Rafale case. In this case, he had to apologize to Rahul Gandhi in the Supreme Court. Rahul Gandhi was sentenced in defamation case on calling Modi surname a thief and Parliament membership was saved due to the Supreme Court. Apart from this, cases of defamation are still going on on Rahul Gandhi in many parts of the country. In the latest development, it has come to light on behalf of Rahul Gandhi to be misunderstood by the name of former Union Minister Arun Jaitley.
