Owaisi responds to KTR’s ‘biryani’ retweet

On Friday, a Twitter user tagged Telangana IT Minister KT Rama Rao in a tweet that complained that he had ordered chicken biryani with extra masala and leg piece but the food delivery agent couldn’t ensure it. Retweeting it, the TRS leader quipped, “And why am I tagged on this brother? What did you expect me to do?”

Hours later, AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi tweeted that KTR’s office must immediately respond by saying that the Minister and his team have been responding to the medical needs of people during this pandemic. This left many Netizens wondering if it was a touch of sarcasm or a serious tweet. Many, assuming that the reply is a sincere one, trolled Owaisi for going gaga over the Minister’s work.

A Twitter user argued that KTR responds to frivolous tweets, but when prudent questions are raised, he never responds. “There are many opposition leaders who also never get a positive response from you nor your team. This is quite strange,” he criticized.

Some journalists, however, quote-tweeted KTR in a light-veined manner. Columnist Andy Mukherjee wrote, “Nice to see politicians in India called upon to solve first-world problems.” Dhanya Rajendran joked, “Sad that KTR cannot ensure an extra piece of chicken.”
