Notably, the External Affairs Minister has been trolled and criticized by some people on twitter over the last week in connection to a controversy involving, issuance of passport to an inter-faith couple.
The trolls started after the Ministry of External Affairs granted passport to a Hindu-Muslim couple and transferred a Lucknow Passport official for allegedly harassing them. Strong languages were also used in those trolls and the Minister was accused of appeasing Muslims.
