Management issues
Another minister clogging timelines was Uttar Pradesh CM Akhilesh Yadav, after he told the media his state was not to blame for the power grid failure. Arsh Singh tweeted: âBlame the Mauryas and Mughals then.' Prakash Sharma added: âAkhilesh Yadav asked shops to down shutters by 7 pm and stop using ACs during peak hours. Progressive CM makes Mayawati look good!' And from Shivam Vij: âAkhilesh Yadav's government must do more, and quickly, says father Mulayam. All in the family!'
Farewell
US writer Gore Vidal was another trending topic following his death at 86. Rob Lowe paid tribute with this tweet: âNow there was a man who knew how to use his pencil.' Frankie Boyle added: âMy favourite Gore Vidal thing is that Norman Mailer punched him and Vidal said "Words fail Norman Mailer yet again".'
