With the intention of trolling Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Twitter, Congress leader Sanjay Jha said the PM speaks like a blonde, on Thursday. Not only did he employed a western cliche to mock Modi, but it was misogynist and insulting to women.
Jha had written: "He has white hair. But he sounds more like a blonde."
The remark backfired in no time with Twitter users slamming him for the insensitive jibe. Some resorted to trolling the Congress leader himself for commenting on hair colour despite having little hair himself.
Jha is the national spokesperson of the Congress party and has been one of the strongest critics of the Prime Minister and his government.
Notably, he didn’t stop at the “blonde” remark on Thursday. Jha later tweeted: "#Modi can't do a press conference. Modi can't do without a TelePrompTer."
