Last time, the famous columnist Shobhaa De was thrashed on Twitter when she tried to insult the Indian athletes who were trying hard to make the nation proud at the Rio Olympics. And this time again, she invited criticism and anger of netizens by making a tweet against the Indian External Affairs minister Sushma Swaraj.
Undoubtedly, Sushma Swaraj is a great politician who is not just loved but also adored and admired by Twitter users because of the wonderful work that she has been doing. What’s more, she has made a perfect use of this communication platform to know problems of the citizens and also to keep in touch with them.
Shobhaa De made a tweet in which she advised Sushma to keep calm and stop tweeting in 2017. She wrote, “Sushma Swaraj : Resolution for 2017 – Keep calm and stop tweeting.”
Here is Shobhaa’s tweet:
Sushma Swaraj : Resolution for 2017 – Keep calm and stop tweeting.

This was more than enough for the users to bring out their swords against the columnist as the tweet was against one of the most popular and favorite politicians of all time who was working even when she was hospitalized due to her kidney failure. Twitterati gave it back to Shobhaa in a kickass way; check out some of the selected tweets:
Pretty well said!
