Get Off WhatsApp, Army Tells its Men After Unsigned Messages Appear on Social Media
New Delhi: Get off WhatsApp -- that's the message of the Indian Army to its officers and jawans after a host of unsigned messages sprung up on social media after both the Uri encounter in Jammu and Kashmir and PM Modi's speech in Srinagar on Monday.
These messages are thought to have been widely circulated on WhatsApp by serving officers, possibly an indicator of discontentment with PM Modi's remarks on Monday where he
is accused by the opposition of
politicising the Budgam shootout
where two innocent young men had
been shot dead by the Army.
One of the messages says, "He proves that all he has is a political agenda and rightly so also as he needs the numbers in the houses of parliament. But the army is just a tool and that too a dispensable one."
