Modi wishes birthday greetings too early

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is so much into tweeting that some of his tweets seem to be automatically generated. Modi greeted Afghan President Ashraf Ghani on Friday on his birthday. Thanking him for the early greeting, Ashraf Ghani pointed out that February 12 was not his birthday and that it was May 19. How did Modi tweet the early greeting? It was because Google had said so. Googling sometimes results in bungling. Not all that appears in the Internet is truth, sometimes it is half-truth. Google had not updated its Afghan data. Hence the bungle. Some of the netizens of course are quick to seize on such errors, especially in relation to intolerance debate. They can pass off even rank treachery as slogans of French Revolution.
