New Delhi: Covid-19 cases continue to rise at a rapid rate in India but Twitter is suffering from its own ailment — mudslinging.
BJP’s Amit Malviya just cannot contain his joy about Rahul Gandhi’s results in this poll.
Rahul Gandhi’s unblemished record of suffering inglorious defeats, continues…
He loses online polls with the same crushing margin as real ones! https://t.co/vYmPoKGWyU

TMC MP Mahua Moitra is in sympathetic agreement with Kanimozhi.
Kani- BJP treasury benches define Indianness by their own narrow parameters of homogeneity – you & I face this every day in LS.
To see this @BJP myopia spread beyond Parliament & into streets only tells me how important it is for us to continue to stand straight & fight this https://t.co/1yNQf5evvz— Mahua Moitra (@MahuaMoitra) August 9, 2020
Meanwhile, activist Harsh Mander challenges Sadhguru in this Ram test.
The moot question is –
To honour which Ram is the #RamTemple being built?
The Ram whose name was on the lips of Mahatma Gandhi when Nathuram Godse killed him?
Or the Ram in whose name Nathuram Godse killed Gandhi?
Every Indian who reveres Ram must make a choice@karwanemohabbat https://t.co/MN8ZOyM5xt— Harsh Mander (@harsh_mander) August 9, 2020

Remember, Satish, when you were assisting me on Masoom, you asked that if I had to shout at anyone, I should shout at you? Why I asked. Will never forget your reply.
