Sushma Swaraj reacts angrily to Twitter insinuation

New Delhi, June 17: External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Wednesday reacted angrily to a tweet suggesting she took favours to get her daughter a seat in a medical college through the northeast quota. "My daughter is a barrister and Oxford graduate. What you say in absolutely false," she replied to the tweet. The twitter handle 'Soch @pakoed' had insinuated that "Sushma is no stranger to taking and giving favours! Her daughter studied through NorthEast quota in medical college." Twitterati immediately reacted, wondering at Sushma's impulsive response to a stray tweet. The handle @pakoed was deleted, though its tweet was retweeted by others. Sushma's twitter supporters urged her not to be hassled by a "dog that barks" and keep up her good work. On Monday too, Sushma appears to have lost her cool, targeting a senior journalist of a news channel that was reporting on the Lalit Modi episode. "Look who is preaching propriety - of all the persons Navika Kumar!" she posted. Sushma's daughter Bansuri is a lawyer, who is reported to have appeared in passport cancellation matters relating to former Indian Premier League chief Lalit Modi before the court.
