Rahul Gandhi admits having ‘journalists’ on his side doing Congress’ bidding

Congress President Rahul Gandhi

Congress President Rahul Gandhi today admitted to having ‘journalists’ on Congress’ side who could go and pose questions on the party’s behalf to his opponents. While addressing a press conference himself, at a time when the BJP was addressing a press conference, Rahul Gandhi inadvertently acknowledged that there are a few journalists, who probably identify themselves as neutral, are on Congress’ side.

Taking a dig at PM Modi, Rahul Gandhi said that he had sent some journalists to go and ask a couple of questions from ‘our’ side, but I believe they (those journalists sent by Rahul Gandhi) are not allowed.

Netizens were quick to point out how Congress is finally admitting the party has a few media persons to do their bidding.

We have earlier written how Congress-friendly journalists have spread fake news and conspiracy theories and even offered their two cents in formalise election and campaign strategy for the Congress.
