A tweet attribute to former union minister Yashwant Sinha is being shared on social media.
The tweet read: प्यार देने से बेटा बिगड़े! भेद देने से नारी! लोभ देने से नोकर बिगड़े! धोका देने से यारी! नोटबन्दी से किसान GST से व्यापारी! और भाजपा को वोट देने से देश बिगड़े! ये बात जनहित में जारी!! धन्यवाद
(Translation: A son can be spoiled by love, and women spoiled by gifts. Greed can spoil a servant and betrayal can finish a friendship. Farmers from GST and demonetisation and the country will deteriorate by voting for BJP! This issue continues in the public interest)
