The official Twitter page of Ukraine's Ministry of Defense on Sunday landed in a major controversy after it shared an artwork which depicted Goddess Kali in an objectionable manner. "Work of art," Ukraine's Defense Ministry said. They also posted an illustration of the Hindu deity, wherein Goddess Kali was seen having an "upskirt moment", bearing resemblance to Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe. This did not go well with Indians who slammed the Twitter handle of Ukraine's Ministry of Defense. Reportedly, the artwork shared by the Twitter page bore an uncanny resemblance to the Hindu deity who is seen in blue skin colour and with a wreath of skulls and the typical 'tongue struck out' pose. "Shocking! Official handle of Ukraine Defense Ministry is portraying Maa Kali in a demeaning pose," said one user while a second wrote, "Why did you delete the "work of art" kid?"
