A Hindu girl and a Muslim boy got married and they are living happily. When they approached Passport Office for applying for Passport, the concerned employee unnecessarily asked personal things that why did she marry a Muslim boy etc. The married girl got upset with the employee and gave a complaint to Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj through Twitter. Sushma immediately responded to the complaint and acted on the issue.
We all know about this incident. But what happened next has become a hot topic now. Hindu chauvinists targeted Sushma for her response. They are alleging that Sushma tried to get the support of Muslims and that's why she acted tough on the girl's complaint. The netizens started trolling Sushma in the social media.
Some netizens are abusing Sushma.. they are criticising her as well. Surprisingly, no top BJP leader is talking about the trolling on Sushma. Though Sushma is a senior leader, Modi and his team are silent on the issue. Some people opine that it was Modi behind the silence of BJP leaders.
On the other hand, the opposition leaders have come to the support of Sushma. They are condemning the trolling on Sushma Swaraj. MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has responded on the trolling. He said that it is unfortunate that Sushma is getting trolled in the issue. He opined that it is not right that BJP top leadership is not supporting Sushma in the issue. He also expressed his doubt that BJP social media wing might be behind the trolling on Sushma.
Whatever be the case, the silence of Modi & Co is not good on the issue because they have to support their party leader when she has done a good thing. It seems Sushma is also not happy with the way BJP leaders are silent.
