Noting is going right for the Congress party, as it has already been beaten in the state elections of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Moreover, it doesn’t seem to make government in Goa and Manipur, despite the fact that it was the party with maximum number of legislators.
And on Tuesday, the official Twitter handle of Congress got slammed by Indian President Pranab Mukherjee’s daughter, Sharmistha Mukherjee, over a tweet which had a photo of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and President Pranab Mukherjee.
The caption written by the official Twitter handle of Congress was “Shri Rajiv Gandhi and Pranab Mukherjee, in 1985”.
Take a look:
Sharmistha got upset as “Shri” was not used for the Indian President and she tweeted, “At least have the courtesy to add ‘Shri’ before Pranab Mukherjee as he happens to be the current President of India”

Just as her tweet went viral, the tweet was deleted by the Congress’ official Twitter handle; however, the damage had been done and Twitterati had taken the screenshot of the tweet.
