Chetan Bhagat Gets Trolled On Twitter Again. This Time, By Arvind Kejriwal.

Looks like it has become very difficult for Chetan Bhagat to stay away from trolls and controversies. A lot of his tweets attract inevitable backlash and something similar has happened yet again.

Remember the last time when Bhagat made this comment on Delhi’s odd-even traffic rule?

At a time when we need economic growth and jobs, somebody decides to get half the vehicles off the roads and destroy productivity. Nice.

And then Kumar Vishwas trolled him big time.

And yet again, Chetan Bhagat made some remarks about Delhi’s odd-even traffic rule this morning.

1.

Am stunned to see how ridiculous, arbitrary, discriminatory, undemocratic and watered down this odd-even plan is becoming. Still, go for it!

2.

Women exempt from odd-even rule. Soon, men in Delhi are going to wrap dupattas around their heads and driving their cars. Go Delhi go!

Cop checklist: Is it odd date? Car odd numbered? Only women?passenger sick? Not Gurgaon/Noida? Sunday?Is it 8am-8pm?Repeat for lakhs, daily!

What Arvind Kejriwal did was retweet some of the tweets by people who were mocking Chetan Bhagat. Looks like that pissed Bhagat off slightly.

Dear CM, instead of retweeting my trolls, why not respectfully discuss apprehensions people may have on a scheme? pic.twitter.com/Z7XXcw6Yhz

He tweeted again to express his anger and disappointment.

Dear CM, when you retweet trolls making personal attacks on me,you tacitly encourage them. And that’s what they are doing right now. Thanks.

Well, let’s hope there is soon a tweet which patches this little argument up and dials down the temperature of the entire situation.
