WATCH: Union Minister misspells 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao', Congress slams BJP; video goes viral
Synopsis
During an event at Brahmakundi High Secondary School in Dhar district, Thakur mistakenly wrote 'Bedhi Padao Bachao' instead of the correct slogan. This incident has sparked widespread criticism and has gone viral on social media.
Union Minister and BJP leader Savitri Thakur's attempt to write the slogan 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao' in Hindi on a whiteboard has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. During a 'School Chalo Abhiyan' rally on Wednesday in Dhar, Madhya Pradesh, Thakur misspelt the phrase, which drew criticism from the Opposition.
Thakur, who serves as the Minister of State for Women and Child Development and is a Lok Sabha member from Dhar, mistakenly wrote "Beddi Padao Bachav" on a whiteboard. The incident happened on camera and a video of her scribbling the incorrect spelling has gone viral on social media.
The Opposition, particularly the Congress, seized the opportunity to question Thakur's educational qualifications.
