Twitter Trend Changes From #Modiinsultsindia To #Modiindiaspride
The comments drew criticism on Twitter.
Brinda Karat: All this time @narendramodi ashamed to be an Indian? RSS pracharak's inferiority complex? #ModiInsultsIndia
God a@TheTweetOfGod: Just talked to Brahma. He's not ashamed to have been born Indian either. #ModiInsultsIndia
Modi's comments also drew sharp criticism from the Congress.
Party leader Kapil Sibal said no prime minister in the world would have made such comments on foreign soil. "Modi is more concerned with non-resident Indians than with Indians," he said.
By Tuesday evening, #ModiInsultsIndia was not on the top of the India trending list, but #ModiIndiasPride was moving towards the top with tweets admiring the prime minister's work.
Arvind Gupta a@buzzindelhi: We are proud to have @narendramodi as face of the Indian government #ModiIndiasPride
Another tweet said: #ModiIndiasPride because @BarackObama is Barack and @NarendraModi is Narendra... He has made Diplomacy so Human.
