New Delhi: While the nation and its billion plus population looks to celebrate the historic moment of Chandrayaan-3’s soft landing on lunar surface on Wednesday, a howler by Rajasthan Sports Minister Ashok Chandna has left everyone amused.

Rajasthan Minister, when asked by reporters to speak on India’s Moon Mission, he hailed the country’s 3rd Moon mission and also extended greetings to all the crew members of the spacecraft.

“I salute all the passengers of Chandrayaan-3,” Rajasthan Minister said in a shocking gaffe.

“Agar safe landing hui, to jo yatri gaye hain hamare unko salaam karta hu (I salute the passengers on Chandrayaan-3),” Chandna said on camera.

It may be noted that Chandrayaan-3 is an unmanned Moon mission, which successfully left for its mission on July 14 and is making landing at 6.04 PM on August 23 (Wednesday).

For the unversed, the entire Chandrayaan-3 mission is being handled by ISRO team from its Bengaluru headquarters but the Congress leaders seems completely unaware of this fact.

Ashok-Chandana -

He is presumably of the assumption that the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft was carrying astronauts on the Moon.
Rajasthan Minister’s comment may be an attempt to garner attention in light of India’s historic Moon mission but with such careless remark, he only left his party & govt red-faced.

The minister also drew many mocking reactions from netizens, owing to his blooper. A user in a jeering remark, termed him ‘Gems of Congress’.
