Congress youth wing deletes chai meme tweet targeting PM Modi, BJP says ‘damage done’

There was a storm in teacup of the Congress when its youth wing tweeted a ‘chai’ meme targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday.

Yuva Desh, the Twitter handle later deleted the tweet, but not before it sparked huge outrage in political circles.

‘Damage is done,’ said BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi. “Now Yuva Desh deleting the tweet means nothing, damage is done, be it intentional or unintentional. This also clearly shows the feudal mindset of Congress,” Trivedi was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
