Shobhaa De Told Sushma Swaraj To Stop Tweeting And Twitter Came To The Minister’s Defence

Shobhaa De is very infamous on Twitter for making statements that usually make the Twitter population seethe in anger.

Remember this tweet?

Goal of Team India at the Olympics: Rio jao. Selfies lo. Khaali haat wapas aao. What a waste of money and opportunity.

— Shobhaa De (@DeShobhaa) August 8, 2016

 

In contrast, Sushma Swaraj is widely respected and loved not just on Twitter but across social media.

She has been very efficient for using Twitter to help a lot of stranded Indian citizens abroad. It is hard to even name any other minister who has been so proactive on social media.

 

That’s why it is surprising and a bit confusing as to why Shobhaa De would tell Sushma Swaraj to “keep calm and stop tweeting”

 

If you are outraged and a bit flummoxed as to why she would tweet something like this, a lot of Twitter citizens share your feelings and released queries in the choicest of words –

@DeShobhaa resolution for 2017. No more botox. Too much of the neurotoxin is now affecting your brain.

@DeShobhaa Those tweets help the Indians abroad who are stuck and need help. Your tweets add no value to the society Shobhaaji

Sushma Swaraj has been working her ass off even after her kidney transplant, and at her age!

A well-worded and lucid criticism would have still been ok, but just telling out External Affairs minister to just shut up on Twitter is going too far.
