A troll army was called out to trend #RSSinKerala Here are some gems of imaginary conversation between Head Troll (AM) and New Troll (NT). Thread 👇(1/n)

AM: Let us start with 20,000 RSS volunteers in Kerala
NT: But why do they need our help to trend it?
AM: Shut up and tweet what you are told. (2/n)

NT: But sir last time you said 20,000 in Nepal earthquake, RSS came out to deny it.
AM: What do they know? Anyway change the number to 10,000 if it makes you happy
NT: But why say “shuddering”
AM: Shut up and tweet (3/n)

NT: Sir last tweet made no sense
AM: It doesn’t matter, our people are not so smart; they won’t figure out.
NT; Are you sure?
AM; Yes. See you can even tweet 20,000 engaged in night service
NT: LOL! What is night service?
AM: Doesn’t matter (4/n)

AM: We must mention the “missionarys”
NT: That’s not how you spell it
AM: It’s okay, our target audience does.
NT: Right. Some are even tweeting it twice for double payment (5/n)

NT: Sir people are calling us out saying the pic is not from Kerala
AM: Damn! Get a different pic from Postcard News
NT: But, they just got caught by Alt News for recycling old pics
AM: Again?? Oh no! (6/n)

AM: We need more flowery text. Here is a good one to copy paste
NT: Makes no sense
AM: Shut up and tweet. It made enough sense to so many people who have liked and retweeted it (7/n)

NT: Sir your team is not even copy pasting correctly. The tweets are nonsensical.
AM: I’m paying you to trend the hashtag, not give English lessons (8/n)

NT: Sir, what is this Bharti and Bhartiyo?
AM: Don’t bother, our people will retweet as long as the sentence has the word “Proud” in it
NT: I give up. I quit! (9/9)

“At a time when the world is facing a shortage of wheat, farmers of India have stepped forward to feed the world”. It was not even two weeks ago that Mr. Modi had made this statement in Berlin. Let us talk about wheat and our ambitions of feeding the world. Thread.👇1/n

India is the world’s second largest producer of wheat. But as we are also world’s second largest consumer of wheat, bulk of the production goes towards feeding our own population. Less than 1% of the wheat consumed in the rest of the world comes from India. 2/n

Indian wheat exports form less than 4% of the global wheat exports. While Indian wheat exports have grown rapidly in the last few years, claims of being a global ‘annadata’ feeding the world are premature at this stage. 3/n
