Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday came under attack from angry tweeple after sharing a story, claiming that after the terrorist attack on Uri, India was under international isolation rather than Pakistan. Kejriwal had tweeted along with the story titled 'Not in India's corner' on Tuesday evening:
Excellent article. On Uri, rather than Pak, India seems to be getting isolated internationally

The tweet went viral immediately with more than 1,100 retweets. The tweet even attracted the replies from Pakistan columnist, Mehr Tarar.
That whatever moment when Delhi, yes, Delhi CM, tweets an Indian article about India's isolation while India is trying to isolate Pakistan

The criticism increased with the South Asian countries pulling out of SAARC summit in Pakistan. Apart from India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Bhutan have decided to stay away from the South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation (SAARC) which is slated to take place in Islamabad in November.
Kejriwal, however, received massive criticism for sharing story and was termed as being anti-national and showing lack of sympathy to the martyrs of the Uri attack.
