Election time is the most exciting time for journalists. While some became dancers, some took to philosophy and mathematics to express their state of mind. Former AAP core member and now a journalist again, Ashutosh took to Twitter to send out cryptic mathematical equations as his analysis of recently concluded Delhi assembly elections where AAP managed a landslide victory.
Is Kejriwal = Modi – Hate !
Just a thought !!!

On Thursday, Ashutosh wondered if Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal is same as Prime Minister Narendra Modi minus the hate. He did not clarify whether he meant the hate PM Modi receives from his ‘critics’. On Wednesday, too, he tweeted cryptic message which was a little difficult to comprehend.
AAP = Well Fare/ISM + Nationalism + Hindu/ness – Hate

The strange equations led to some hilarity on Twitter.
Kejriwal = (0.6*Lalu)+(0.2*Mayawati)+(0.1*Rahul Gandhi)+(0.1* VP Singh) https://t.co/zaMFXQ8aXk

Ashutosh and Twitter
Born again journalist and former AAP leader Ashutosh has been a constant source of comic relief amidst tensions. After quitting AAP, he had gone off to mountains to recuperate and shared pictures. Then, too, netizens got quite creative with Photoshop. His tweets have always been a breath of fresh air in an otherwise depressing state of affairs on social media.
