Minister of state for urban housing, health, family welfare, transport Shankar Chaudhary's attempts to demonstrate his proficiency in the English language to a group of government school kids in Deesa failed miserably when he misspelt the word Elephant. The minister who claims to be a MBA degree holder wrote 'E for Elephent' on the blackboard. However, sources close to him claim he intentionally misspelt the word to test students' knowledge in the language.
