Earlier, Congress chief Rahul’s surprise gesture to hug Modi in the Lok Sabha after his speech during the no-confidence debate had Twitter abuzz today with jokes aplenty and the hashtags "pappukijhappi", "bhookampaagaya" and "hugplomacy" trending on the microblogging site.
Many remembered "Munnabhai", the character from the eponymous Bollywood film who hugged his opponents in a bid to win them over and prove the relevance of Gandhian values.
As visuals of the Congress president walking across the House to hug Modi were played repeatedly across television channels and social media platforms, some recalled the prime minister's own penchant for hugging leaders and some referred to Gandhi's mocking moniker Pappu.
