‘Slip of tongue’: Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury apologises to President Murmu over ‘Rashtrapatni’ remark

Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Friday tendered a written apology to President Droupadi Murmu for referring to her as ‘Rashtrapatni’ in the Lok Sabha, and launched an assault against Union minister Smriti Irani for disrespecting the President and the use of derogatory language in opposition to birthday celebration president Sonia Gandhi.

“I am writing to express my feel sorry about for having mistakenly used an flawed phrase to describe the function you [President] hold. I assure you that it was once a slip of the tongue. I apologise and request you to be given the same,” reads his letter to President Murmu.
