Congress president Rahul Gandhi has extended an unconditional apology to the Supreme Court for attributing the “chowkidar chor hai” jibe to the court after its Rafale judgment.
Gandhi has filed a fresh affidavit with unconditional apology to the Supreme Court in the Rafale contempt case.
The affidavit states, “Unconditional apology to the Supreme Court for unintentionally and inadvertently linking SC order in Rafale review plea to his “cowkidar chor hai” political jibe against PM Narendra Modi.”
The affidavit also says, Deponent unconditionally apologises for the wrongful attributions to this Hon’ble Court. The Deponent further states that any such attributions were entirely unintentional, non-willful and inadvertent.”
After the bench headed by Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi rejected Rahul’s previous affidavit that had expressed ‘regret’, and also pulled him up for making contradictory statements, the Gandhi scion was pushed to the wall in offering the unqualified apology so as to put an end to the contempt case.
The Deponent unconditionally apologises for the wrongful attributions to this Hon’ble Court. The Deponent further states that any such attributions were entirely unintentional, non-willful and inadvertent,” stated Rahul’s new affidavit.
