Retd Army Col Baljit Bakshi calls CDS Rawat's chopper crash "karma"; Twitter loses its cool
New Delhi: Army Chief General MM Naravane on Wednesday briefed Defence Minister Rajnath Singh over the incident of the crash of a military chopper in Tamil Nadu, that was carrying Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat and 13 others.
Defence Minister also visited CDS Rawat residence in the national capital today. General Rawat was on his way from the Sulur IAF Station to the Defence Services Staff College in Wellington in Coonoor when the IAF Mi-17V5 helicopter in which he was travelling crashed in a forested area in the Nilgiris district around 12:20 pm.
According to the sources, 13 of the 14 personnel involved in the CDS chopper crash have been confirmed dead.
However, as soon as, the news broke a retired Army officer, Colonel Baljit Bakshi took things a bit too further when he tweeted, “Karma has its own way of dealing with people.” Although the retired Army officer deleted the tweet from his account.
Screenshots of his tweets are doing rounds on social media; See here

Not a mockery of an either an individual or Indian Army but honestly Col. Baljit Bakshi mocked his upbringing .

How many tweets you will delete @BaljitBakshi .
You showed your true colour.
With that honour and designation with your name it was the Lowest Low.You could not hold on to the backlash of your lame apology too

RIP by Panag was nothing but a death wish for CDS #BipinRawat Sir.
Baljit will surely face his own Karma one day.There is no difference between their language & language of Khalistanis. Both are disgrace to #IndianArmy pic.twitter.com/UuWqMLSoLe

When our CDS is battling for his life, a former colonel is celebrating the accident.
More than rage, I feel pity for him and his mindset. His propaganda, insecurity and hate has consumed him. Get well soon, colonel. Hope karma is kinder to you. pic.twitter.com/yqL9kyktoZ

This is when we get to see the true colors of cowards who hide behind words like Karma to hide their hatred for the country. The nation will teach you what Karma is.
Only the lowest of traitors can celebrate the accident of CDS Bipin Rawat’s helicopter crash like this. pic.twitter.com/hwu7YC1pkX
