New Delhi: Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s slip of the tongue on Wednesday, while talking about the GST imposition on horse racing has resulted in hilarious reactions from opposition parties. In a video that is circulating on social media, the minister can be heard saying “horse-trading” instead of “horse racing” before quickly correcting herself.
Several leaders took to Twitter to comment on the minister’s faux pas.
Congress’s chairman of media and publicity Pawan Khera took a jibe at the BJP minister and said, “I knew Nirmala Sitharaman ji had the ability to think out of the (ballot) box.”
The Congress’s Secretary Vineet Punia also tweeted the video and said, “We welcome Nirmala Sitharaman ji’s proposal to impose GST on horse-trading.”
CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury said, “Truth gallops out? GST on horse trading!”
