In one of the biggest headlines from the 2019 Lok Sabha election results, Smriti Irani defeated Congress president Rahul Gandhi in his own bastion. With Rahul losing in Amethi comprehensively, cricketer-turned-commentator Aakash Chopra took to Twitter and wrote 'Rahul Gandhi Losing from Amethi.....who saw this coming??'
However, Chopra's tweet did not go down well as one of the netizens asked him to mind his own business by sticking to commentary by reminding him that he was not a political expert.
Nonetheless, the former Test opening batsman handled the situation very calmly. He admitted that he was not a political expert by any stretch of imagination and said that every citizen of the nation has the right to opine on politics and more.
In a surprising turn of events, the netizen apologised to Chopra for his actions.
The commentator was also courteous towards the troll.
The troll then said that he had a lot of respect for Chopra.
Even though the netizen had apologised, the Twitterverse was against him as they backed Aakash Chopra.
