Kunal Kamra has sparked off Twitter war

IANS

Mumbai: The current burning debate on social media has divided netizens in their opinion on stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra, who has been banned by four airlines for allegedly heckling journalist Arnab Goswami on an Indigo flight.

Twitter has ensured a war between the two groups; the ones who are making fun and the others, who are supporting him for bashing Arnab Goswami.

One set of users are making fun of the comedian, trolling him and creating memes of him.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has come out in support of Kunal Kamra. Taking a dig at Arnab Goswami without mentioning names, he tweeted: “The ban imposed on #kunalkamra by 4 airlines is the act of a coward leveraging his influence with the Govt to silence a critic. Those who use their "news" cameras as 24x7 tools of propaganda, should show some spine when the camera is turned on them.”

A user tweeted: "This is insane #kunalkamra needs to be banned for years and not just six months. only mentally instable would do this. I am certainly not a fan of #ArnabGoswami but this time hats off to the way he maintained composure."

Despite all the trolls, netizens who are supporting Kunal Kamra seems to be higher in number.

A user tweeted: "Mr. Arnab Goswami is disgrace to humanity. People like him should be heckled not only onboard but everywhere. He was given a taste of his own medicine which did not go down well with his boot lickers. Kunal had the balls to do what he did with Arnab Goswami. #kunalkamra"

Meanwhile, Kunal Kamra tagged Vistara airlines and he tweeted asking them to feel free to ban him because he is now planning to go on a road trip to Goa.

He wrote: "Arrey @airvistara kar hi do yaar, I won't judge you, Main drive karke goa nikal ne ka plan bana hi raha hoon... thoda break bhi lena Banta hai..."
