A post is being shared on social media claiming that Rahul Gandhi is ranked seventh in Forbes ‘World’s Most Educated Leaders’ list. Let’s verify the claim made in the post.
Claim: Rahul Gandhi ranked seventh in Forbes ‘World’s Most Educated Leaders’ list.
Fact: Forbes never conducted a survey on the education of World leaders. There are no credible evidence to prove Rahul Gandhi as the seventh most educated leader in the world. Hence, the claim made in the post is FALSE.
On searching for the ‘World’s Most Educated Leaders’ list on Forbes website, there is no such list found on the survey lists mentioned in the Forbes website. Forbes company never did a survey on the Educational qualifications of World leaders.
In the affidavit filed for the Amethi Parliamentary constituency, Rahul Gandhi mentioned his educational qualifications as ‘Bachelours of Arts’ from Rollins College in Florida and then completed his M.PHIL (Development Studies) from Trinity College, University of Cambridge. There are no credible sources to prove Rahul Gandhi as the seventh most educated leader in the world.
To sum it up, Forbes hasn’t listed Rahul Gandhi as the seventh most educated leader in the world.
