      Rahul Gandhi going to london

      A video of Rahul Gandhi alluding that businessmen accused of financial fraud can always leave the country, has been edited to falsely claim that Gandhi said he would move to London, and his children will study in America.

      In the edited clip of 11 seconds one can hear Gandhi say, "Nothing will happen, I will go to London, my children will go and study in America, I have nothing to do with India, I have crores of money, I will go anytime."

      (Original text in Hindi - कुछ नहीं होने वाला मैं तो लंदन चला जाऊंगा, मेरे बच्चे तो अमेरिका में जाकर पढेंगे । मेरा हिंदुस्तान से कुछ लेनदेना नहीं है, मेरे पास हजारों करोड़ रुपय हैं मैं तो कभी भी चला जाऊंगा।)

      ये हैं गांधी परिवार की असलियत!

      ये जनता को अपने बाप की अमानत समझ के रखे है, और धमकी दे रहे है कि मैं लंदन चला जाऊंगा और मेरे बच्चे अमेरिका में पढ़ेंगे!

      इनको आज ही लंदन भेज दो! या तो सबसे अच्छा इनके असली घर पाकिस्तान ही भेज दो!
