The minister was touched by the sweet message sent to him on his birthday and therefore decided to share it with his followers, however, this idea became a big topic of discussion on social media, but for the wrong reasons.

Netizens were miffed at the minister for putting up a TikTok video at a time when tensions are running high between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.

They also pointed out that, the minister should ask his family to boycott the Chinese video-sharing platform and set an example to others. However, few defended the minister’s daughter saying one must not politicize a daughter’s wish on his birthday that too while they are at a hospital.

It may be recalled the earlier too minister has faced criticism by the netizens after he shared his picture of his family in a swimming pool while lockdown was in force.
