Congress national media coordinator celebrates Pakistan’s victory against India in T20 World Cup, insults ‘Bhakts’

In her first tweet, the Congress national media coordinator said, "What Bhakts? How's the taste? You have managed to humiliate yourselves?"

Congress national media coordinator Radhika Khera mocked Indians while celebrating Pakistan’s victory against India in the T20 World Cup. Pakistan beat India by 10 wickets while chasing a target of 152. Radhika Khera was overjoyed with the victory and appeared to interpret it as a defeat for ‘Bhakts’ and not for India as a country.

In her next tweet, Radhika Khera targeted ‘stupid Bhakts’ and “Malviya’s 2 rupees trolls”. She was presumably referring to Amit Malviya, the IT Cell head of the BJP.

When a fellow Congress party member reminder her that the Indian team that lost to Pakistan did not belong to ‘Bhakts’ alone, the Congress national media coordinator mocked him saying that someone who appears on Times Now was giving her advise.

Earlier, people on social media had given the Indian cricket team plenty of brickbats for losing to Pakistan. Pakistan defeated India for the first time in a World Cup event on Sunday after they defeated India by 10 wickets in their opening match of the T20 World Cup. Pakistan chased down the target of 152 with 13 balls to spare. The men in green never looked in trouble and chased down the target comfortably.

Radhika Khera brazens it out

Even after over 12 hours, Congress National Media coordinator Radhika Khera has not removed her distasteful tweet even though she has been panned by many netizens for the same. In fact, she has now claimed that her tweet mocking ‘Bhakts’ right after India lost to Pakistan was not on India Pakistan match.

Khera has claimed she will take legal action against those who reported on her tweet. However, she has not yet clarified what ‘insult’ she was speaking about right after India’s loss to Pakistan in T20 World Cup match.

In fact, she has also taken to tagging employees of people who are condemning her distasteful tweet against Indian cricket team.

When Times Now journalist questioned the motive behind her tweet, she accused him of being BJP spokesperson on deputation at media house.

She also tagged Indian Express to complaint about another of their journalist who criticised her distasteful tweet.

Meanwhile, as one Twitter user pointed out, this tweet by Khera has drawn more attention to her than her actual election campaign.

As seen above, the number of quoted tweets, most of them critical of her distasteful tweet, are more than the actual votes she got in 2020 Delhi state assembly elections. Khera had contested from Janakpuri constituency where she got merely 2084 votes. She had even lost her security deposit. At the time of this report, she has over 4,121 quoted tweets, most of which are critical of her. This is likely the most popularity she has ever gained.
