Home Minister Rajnath Singh said that Sushma Swaraj's trolling is wrong.

Home Minister Rajnath Singh, today, said that Sushma Swaraj's trolling is wrong.

Finally breaking the BJP's silence on the trolling of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Twitter, Rajnath said, "Jo ho raha hai woh galat hai (whatever is happening is wrong)."

Rajnath Singh is the first BJP leader to comment on this issue.

Sushma Swaraj was trolled on Twitter after the transfer of a passport officer who allegedly humiliated an interfaith couple in Lucknow.

Swaraj retweeted and liked many of the abusive tweets she received. A few days later, Sushma Swaraj's husband Swaraj Kaushal tweeted a screenshot of a post by a Twitter user who asked him



to "beat" the minister and "teach her not to do Muslim appeasement".

Sushma Swaraj started a Twitter poll against the trolling and asked tweeple to respond if they approve of the trolling or not. The poll, which ended on Sunday, received 43 per cent votes in favour of the trolling.

Former J&K chief minister and National Conference chief Omar Abdullah came out in support of Sushma Swaraj. Quoting Swaraj's tweet showing the poll results, Omar wrote, "That 43% of almost 120,000 respondents support the vile tweets that have been used to troll @SushmaSwaraj tells its own story of what a miserable place part of the Twitter universe has become. Shame on the trolls & their supporters/apologists."
