NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's statement during his recent
three-nation tour that Indians earlier 'felt ashamed' of being born in the country has not gone down well on Twitter.
"Earlier you felt ashamed of being born Indian," the Prime Minister had said, according to reports. "Now you feel proud to represent the country. Indians abroad had all hoped for a change in government last year," he added.
Many users lambasted Modi for his comments and #ModiInsultsIndia was one of the top trends on Twitter.
@TheTweetOfGod tweeted, "Just talked to Brahma. He's not ashamed to have been born Indian either."
His comments also gave an opportunity to the opposition Congress to target him.
Sanjay Jha of the Congress tweeted, "#ModiInsultsIndia is a worldwide top trend because it has offended the sensibilities of every Indian. A national disgrace beyond description."
Pawan Khera, also of the Congress, tweeted, "India was not ashamed despite your shenanigans in Gujarat. India is more, much more than you can ever understand #ModiInsultsIndia"

#ModiInsultsIndia We elect a PM who travels the world at our expense to tell the world how ashamed we are about our parents & ancestors. :(
