If ever there was a witty comeback, this is it.


The Congress has just tweeted to say: @INCIndia This looks very difficult to do, but when youre #Pliable its quite easy. Ask Modiji.
#RafaleGrandExpose #DoubleAA

 
With the word pliable trending on social media after Rahul Gandhi's comment on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's New Year interview by a "pliable journalist", the party has been censured by the Editor's Guild for casting aspersions on ANI editor Smita Prakash's credibilty and editorial independence.  The Congress, clearly stands its ground, on its description of the Smita Prakash. 


While attacking PM Modi on the Rafale jet deal at a press conference on Wednesday, the Congress president had referred to his exclusive interview to ANI editor Smita Prakash on January 1. "He (Modi) does not have the guts to come and sit in front of you. And I am coming here, you can ask me any question. You saw the prime minister's interview yesterday...matlab pliable journalist, she was asking questions and was even giving answers."


The AA in the picture, of course, refers to Rahul Gandhi's quip in Parliament, when he was rebuked by the Speaker for taking Anil Ambani's name as the recepient of govermental largesse in the Rafale deal. Rahul thereafter referred to the industrialist using his initials.


And then, there's the PM's peculiar bend. The Congress has very intelligently used Narendra Modi's morning exercise routine as part of a fitness challenge posed by Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports, Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore, in June.


The PM's routine launched a thousand memes.

Good one, @INC.
