DEMOCRACY BY TWITTER

With the Opposition running out of tall leaders to take on Prime Minister Modi, there is a suggestion on Twitter that perhaps it should rope in Arun Shourie to lead the Opposition. The former editor has been the face of pointed attacks against the Modi government of late. Clearly, this was a suggestion in jest, more aimed at the Opposition for its lack of leadership, but the reaction it’s getting from the trolls, makes you wonder if they consider Shourie a serious challenge.
