CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU

Though DMK chief M.K Stalin had a smooth transition into the Tamil Nadu chief minister’s office, his IT team had to chase the outgoing AIADMK for the CMO’s social media handles. Overzealous staff from the office of outgoing chief minister E.K. Palaniswami forced Twitter to suspend the official handle of the Tamil Nadu chief minister’s office (@CMOTamilNadu) after they changed it to ‘Office of EPS’, presumably believing the account belonged to him. They did so with the chief minister’s official Facebook page too. But when the gaffes were pointed out, they backtracked, allowing the DMK’s IT wing to recover the official social media accounts for a digital change of guard.
