An assistant professor’s attempt to criticise Congress leader Rahul Gandhi backfired after social media users corrected her grammar despite her claiming to hold master’s degrees in both English and Education.

Arpita Chatterjee, who identified herself as an assistant professor from West Bengal, shared a post on X claiming that she held two master’s degrees and was pursuing a PhD while questioning Rahul Gandhi over his remarks about “andhbhakts.”

While the post was intended as a criticism of Gandhi, it quickly garnered attention for its language and phrasing instead.

Take a look at the post here:

Several users focused on Chatterjee’s grammar rather than her criticism of Gandhi. Some pointed out that, despite claiming to hold master’s degrees in both English and Education, her post contained multiple grammatical errors.

Some even rewrote parts of her post, suggesting that phrases such as “having two master’s degree” should have been written as “having two master’s degrees” and that “pursuing PhD” should have been phrased as “pursuing a PhD.”

Others sarcastically remarked that an English postgraduate making such mistakes was ironic, while a few joked that the post had unintentionally become a grammar lesson instead of a political statement.
