Sushma Swaraj 'Delightfully Obliges' Troll Who Went From Being Her Supporter to Detractor; Check Out The Twitter Exchange
Earlier, on July 1, Swaraj Kaushal, the husband of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, retaliated to a troll who recommended him to 'beat his wife for Muslim appeasement.'
New Delhi, July 3: Sushma Swaraj, who has been under attack of late from trolls on Twitter, gave it back in style to a troll who requested to be blocked by the minister. The user asked Foreign Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj in a tweet to be blocked and claimed that she was a fan of the Foreign Affairs Minister earlier but wanted to be blocked by the minister now. "I was once a fan and fought against those who abused you, ab aap please, mujhe bhi block kar ke, inaam dijiye. Intezaar rahegaa," said a tweeter user named Sonam Mahajan. (I was once a fan and fought against those who abused you, now you please block me also, and reward me by blocking, I shall wait).
The minister gave an apt reply to her by saying that Intezaar Kyon? Lijiye block kar diya. (Why to wait? Here I block you)
Swaraj has been under the attack of right-wing social media users after her Ministry took action against passport officer Vikas Mishra in Lucknow, who allegedly harassed an interfaith couple during the discharge of his duty. Mishra has been transferred to Gorakhpur with an inquiry ordered against him. Even Congress spokesperson Priyanka Chaturvedi became a victim of online abuse and threat on Monday.
