New Delhi (30.09.2021): The Group Editor of Times Now had to apologize for using derogatory words against senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. She faced the ire of Congress supporters for her clip where she used a derogatory term for Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Live TV. Even after her apology, she was trolled by the Congress leaders and supporters.”

Navika Tweeted: “The momentary lapse in the flow of conversation in using an unparliamentary word on air was in the context of describing the political situation in Punjab which Rahul Gandhi thought had been addressed before he took a break but persisted ironically at the time of his return. The context was certainly not to describe any person as is being misquoted. As can be seen in the clip, it was unintentional and immediately retracted. Sincere apologies for the lapse.”
