    Another-gaffe: Amit Shah's translator says Modi won't work for poor!

    Another-gaffe: Amit Shah's translator says Modi won't work for poor!

    What's the story

    With the BJP going on a gaffe spree, Congress might not need much campaigning in Karnataka.

    Two days ago, Amit Shah ended up mis-speaking at a press conference and accused his own candidate of being "Number-1 in corruption."

    Today, while speaking at a rally, Shah's translator Prahlad Joshi, also a BJP MP, said, "Narendra Modi will not do anything for the poor and Dalits."

    Details

    Joshi reportedly intended to name Siddaramaiah

    The very brief video of the incident showed Joshi translating to Kannada for Shah, who was speaking in Hindi at a rally.

    According to Deccan Digest, Joshi, who was supposed to say Siddaramaiah wasn't helping the poor, ended up mis-speaking and named Modi instead.

    TNM says the video was aired by Times Now, but ended abruptly after Joshi's wrong translation.

    Shah blames own party candidate for corruption!

    On Tuesday, Shah was roasted on social media after he said the "Yedyurappa government would win any competition for corruption."

    BS Yeddyurappa, who was sitting right there, is the BJP's CM candidate.

    Interestingly, he had made a very similar mistake before too: in an undated video, he is heard saying, "Yedyurappa says the BJP government doesn't help in Karnataka's development...," before someone corrects him.

    Congress leaders have a field day on Twitter

    Rahul Gandhi called it the Congress' "top secret campaign video." "Gifted to us by the BJP President, our campaign in Karnataka is off to a fabulous start."

    "Who knew @AmitShah could also speak the truth- we all concur with you Amit ji," tweeted Divya Spandana.

    Siddaramaiah thanked Shah, but didn't let go of the opportunity to take a dig at the #ShahOfLies.
