Other senior ministers in the Union Government like Ravi Shankar Prasad and Vijay Goel also follow his Twitter handle. His Twitter bio describes him as “India272Pune , ( IIT Bombay,IIMP) – Political Strategist , Cartoonist I am Hindu and Team PM Modi“.

Another account that is followed by PM Modi and Union Minister Giriraj Singh tweeted, “एक कुतिया कुत्ते की मौत क्या मरी सारे पिल्ले एक सुर में बिलबिला रहे है। 😜😜 अब ये कौन कह रहा है किसी शिष्य ने गुरु दक्षिणा में #GauriLankesh को वही दे दिया जिसकी शिक्षा वामपंथी अपने शिष्यों को देते है? (Translation: A bitch died a dog’s death and all of her litter is crying in the same voice)

Oxomiya Jiyori which is yet another account followed by PM Modi on Twitter said “God had different plan for group of Bharat tere tukde Honge” while commenting on Gauri Lankesh’s pictures with JNU students Kanhaiya Kumar and Umar Khalid. Those masked men who actually raised those slogans in JNU have never been arrested but the propaganda is being used to malign and justify Gauri Lankesh’s murder.

The list is endless as who all among the right-wing thought that the horrifying murder of a person is the right time to spew all the venom they had against them because of ideological differences. There are many more on Facebook and Twitter who said things that are so hateful that it cannot be reproduced here. Is this the same hateful ideology that consumed Gauri Lankesh?
