New Delhi: Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra's recent social media post, intended to support a young girl from Arunachal Pradesh who defended her Indian identity, has backfired due to a significant mix-up of facts. The post, meant to express love and pride for the girl from Itanagar, mistakenly included "Jai Manipur" alongside "Jai Hind," which highlighted the MP's confusion between Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh.
