Ravi Kishan sparks viral memes after slip of tongue regarding Rahul Gandhi
BJP MP and actor Ravi Kishan has sparked widespread social media attention following a verbal slip during a political critique of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. While addressing media regarding footage that allegedly shows Gandhi elbowing a party worker during a protest in New Delhi, Kishan remarked, ‘You are going to become the Prime Minister, but you are already elbowing your own workers.’
Kishan attempted to mock Gandhi’s leadership style by repeatedly using the word ‘kohni’ (elbow) and coining the term ‘kohinibaaz Prime Minister.’ He questioned how Gandhi would govern the nation if he were already treating grassroots workers with disrespect. However, the phrase ‘Jab aap PM banoge’ (When you become Prime Minister) was widely reframed by netizens into viral memes and humorous commentary across platforms like X and Instagram.
