New Delhi: On the occasion of Diwali, when everyone was greeting and wishes each other Congress leader Udit Raj took to Twitter and referred Team India skipper Virat Kohli as his wife Anushka Sharma’s ‘dog’ as he jumped into the firecrackers row.
Kohli had urged people to not burst crackers on the occasion of the ‘Festival of Joy’. However, Virat faced some backlash as several users on social media started questioning the Indian skipper for his ‘forceful woke’ message and countered him for his collection of luxury cars which also “contribute to the pollution” among several other reasons.
Read what Udit Raj wrote:
विराट कोहली के सुझाव का स्वागत लेकिन कुछ दुष्टों ने ट्वीटर पर भद्दी गालियाँ देना शुरू कर दी।हैरान हूँ कि सरकार ये सब देख रही जैसे कि मौन सहमति हो। इनके ख़िलाफ़ कार्यवाही अभी तक नही हुई।ये इंसान नही हो सकते।कुत्ते को भी बुरा कह रहे हैं ।कुत्ता से ज़्यादा वफ़ादार कोई नही।

Later Udit Raj gave a justification for his controversial tweet:
I appreciated the message of Virat Kohli &slammed those who trolled him.He was compared with dog. For I said dogs are most faithful and it was reply to trollers yet some media could not understand the meaning. I think they rejoice reading negatively .https://t.co/ail6NNfFDB
