If you thought Rahul Gandhi goofs up only to keep his team of spokespersons busy defending him, we have some news for you. Congress social media team and spokespersons do that on a regular basis to keep themselves busy.

Earlier today, Congress spokesperson Priyanka Chaturvedi wished her followers for Ram Navami (which usually comes in March/April on the ninth day of Chaitra Navratri) on Mahanavami, which is today (ninth day of Ashwin month).

At a time when Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi is visiting temples in Gujarat to shed the anti-Hindu image of Gujarat, the party could not quite afford such goof ups. Perhaps that is why she immediately deleted the tweet. Not to let an opportunity slip by, Twitterati was quick to take screenshot to make some jokes on the goof up.

Happy Ram Navmi to you. I’m astonished by your vast knowledge abt our History & religion. BTW When do we celebrate Durga Navmi or Maha Navmi pic.twitter.com/XXQqqIbBcB — Ra_Bies (@Ra_Bies) September 29, 2017

Congress supporters also sly tweeted on Priyanka Chaturvedi’s goof up.

Folks, its #Mahanavami today Not #Ramnavami . Ramnavami falls during Chaitra Navratri (March-April). — Sadhavi Khosla (@sadhavi) September 29, 2017

Earlier, Chaturvedi was schooled by Twitterati for on how insurance premium vs claims work. Priyanka Chaturvedi, we wish you a very happy Maha Navmi!
