On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi called Punjab Chief Minister Prakash Singh Badal as the Nelson Mandela of India while he was giving a speech in an event held in order to celebrate the 113th birth anniversary of Jai Prakash Narayan.
PM Modi said, “Badal Sahab is sitting here…he is the Nelson Mandela of India. The only crime of people like Badal Sahib was that they had political views different from those in power.”
Prakash Singh Badal also returned the favor soon by saying that country has brought big change by bringing a new government under the leadership of Mr. Modi as he can fulfill the dreams of our national heroes like JP.
However, this comparison of Badal with Mandela didn’t went well with the twitter users, in fact very soon #YoBadalSoMandela started trending and jokes and funny tweets were posted.
The Chief Minister of Delhi, Arvind Kejriwal was also one of those twitter users who posted their tweets on this comparison along with Capt. Amarinder Singh, the former CM of Punjab.
Here are some tweets which will make you go ROFL:
