Just when you thought that the world of politics was taking Rahul Gandhi seriously, he did it again! In his blazing attack against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Congress President went off-track with his analogies saying the founder of Coca-Cola as a 'shinkanji seller' and that of McDonald's a 'dhaba wala'.

Just when you thought that the world of politics was taking Rahul Gandhi seriously, he did it again! In his blazing attack against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Congress President went off-track with his analogies saying the founder of Coca-Cola as a 'shinkanji seller' and that of McDonald's a 'dhaba wala'.

While Twitter had a field day with #AccordingtoRahulGandhi becoming hot trend, many believe this gaffe may give ammunition to his detractors. 

Well, this is not the first time Gandhi has made such unintentionally hilarious remarks. Last year, he added another one to his list when he accidentally walked in women's toilet in Chhota Udepur.

The Gandhi scion was in the Gujarat district to hold a 'Samvad' session with young people.

Gandhi entered the women's restroom while on his way out of the town hall at the event. According to reports, there was no sign or symbol differentiating between men and women's toilet.

The photos that went viral after the incident showed a poster in Gujarati that read 'Mahilao Mate Shauchalya'.

According to an India Today report, the moment Rahul Gandhi realised the blunder, he came out and started laughing.

Gandhi has always been in news for his speech gaffes.

In August, 2017, the Congress vice president refereed Indira Canteens in Bangalore as Amma canteen during the launch event.

In 2016, he spoke about 'aloo ki factory' during a rally in Uttar Pradesh's Firozabad. "You all are demanding a potato factory in your area, but you should understand I am an opposition leader. I can put pressure on the government, but cannot take the decision. I cannot open a potato factory for farmers," he had said.

But the most famous or rather infamous gaffe was when he was made the Congress Vice President in 2013.

During a speech, he spoke about how his mother Sonia Gandhi woke him up at 1 am and said 'This morning, I got up at night.'
