In a Twitter face-off between Shashi Tharoor and Ramdas Athawale, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) turned out to be the collateral injury.

The episode began with the Congress MP from Kerala posting a photograph of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman replying to the dialogue on the Union Budget 2022, the place Union Minister Ramdas Athawale might be seen within the background. Pointing out the Minister’s response, Tharoor wrote that the “stunned and incredulous expression” proves even the treasury bench could not consider the Finance Minister’s claims in regards to the economic system and her Budget.

However, whereas tweeting, Tharoor, who is usually known as the Internet’s English instructor, made spelling errors which Athawale was in no temper to let go of. Pointing out the errors, the Union Minister wrote: “Dear Shashi Tharoor ji, they say one is bound to make mistakes while making unnecessary claims and statements.”

Now, it’s whereas acknowledging his mistake that Tharoor introduced JNU into the battle. In a veiled reference to the new vice-chancellor Santishree Dhulipadi Pandit’s press launch, which had lately made information due to the grammatical errors, Tharoor mentioned: “Careless typing is a bigger sin than bad English! But while you are on a roll, there’s someone at JNU who could benefit from your tuition.”
