Realising the inaccuracy of this assertion, Sitharaman herself issued a clarification quickly after, saying India certainly attended the mentioned summits earlier as nicely. Despite the finance minister issuing a clarification to her tweet, on Monday morning, journalists and Congress celebration minions determined to ‘fact check’ Nirmala Sitharaman, solely to finish up later with egg on their faces.The Hindu’s Suhasini Haider was among the many first to level out how the Finance Minister had the improper info, and that India had attended G7 summits earlier as nicely. This was even though Sitharaman had issued a corrigendum on Sunday evening itself.Actually India has participated as a visitor nation at G7 a number of occasions since 2003, when PM Vajpayee was invited.

However, you may also want to see the follow-up tweet issued soon after the one you’re quoting, both of which were last night.

However, you may additionally need to see the follow-up tweet issued quickly after the one you’re quoting, each of which had been final evening 🙂 ICYMI: https://t.co/A75Jgulzmw https://t.co/O7GMae9yZg— Nirmala Sitharaman (@nsitharaman) June 14, 2021But Suhasini Haider of the Hindu was hardly accomplished. She was out to show a degree. So, in one more futile endeavour, the ‘senior journalist’ probed Nirmala Sitharaman, saying, “Thank you Minister…but as others might make the same mistake, may be best to delete your tweet?”To this unwarranted dictation of how the Finance Minister ought to run her Twitter deal with, Sitharaman replied saying, “Your caution is well taken, but I prefer not deleting tweets — especially since I haven’t left any misleading information dangling here.

Have a very good week.— Nirmala Sitharaman (@nsitharaman) June 14, 2021Deleting a tweet by which Nirmala Sitharaman quoted herself to rectify is unnecessary – however for “senior journalists” and minions from the Congress celebration, this was too troublesome to understand. Supriya Shrinate of the Congress – recognized finest for calling BJP’s Sambit Patra a “gandi naali ka keeda (worm of a dirty drain)” – jumped in as nicely, saying, “No Nirmala Sitharaman ji, India was invited as a guest country at G7 several times-2003 Atalji was invited, between 2005-2009 Dr Manmohan Singh ji was invited multiple times. You must get your facts right while cheerleading.”No @nsitharaman ji, India was invited as a visitor nation at G7 a number of times-2003 Atalji was invited, between 2005-09 Dr Manmohan Singh ji was invited a number of occasionsYou should get your info proper whereas cheerleading https://t.co/PMkh9hEZZf— Supriya Shrinate (@SupriyaShrinate) June 14, 2021Pankaj Pachauri pontificated over how India’s Finance Minister being so “ill informed” would have mirrored on the G7 summit itself. For the uninitiated, Pachauri was Dr Manmohan Singh’s “communications adviser,” if that makes any sense.If the Finance Minister of the nation is so in poor health knowledgeable, think about the inputs being given to #G7 by India. PM Manmohan Singh attended the Summit as a particular visitor at UK, Japan and Germany. https://t.co/PzeWwmOXnk pic.twitter.com/PrCwKJDnWD— Pankaj Pachauri (@PankajPachauri) June 14, 2021Why journalists of a sure leaning bought so labored up by one inadvertent tweet of Nirmala Sitharaman, regardless of the Finance Minister issuing a clarification a lot earlier than her tweet catching the attention of those “fact checkers” just isn’t recognized. Perhaps, it was to offer ammunition to Congress leaders and liberals who’ve been blinded by their hatred for Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP.
