Twitter mocks Mahesh Sharma for his uncultured comments

Union Culture Minister Mahesh Sharma has been in the eye of the storm since he made a handful of comments about 'Indian culture'. 

He had said about former APJ Abdul Kalam: “Aurangzeb Road ka naam bhi badal kar ek aise mahapurush ke naam par kiya hai jo Musalman hote hue bhi inta bada rashtravadi aur manavtavadi insaan tha (We have renamed it after someone who was a humanitarian and a nationalist despite being a Muslim).” 

He also said: “Western culture is not bad but it may not be good for us. Here, 15-year-old children don't leave their parents. A 14-year-old girl wanting a night out maybe all right elsewhere but not in India.”
Speaking about the RSS' role in governance he had said: “If at all saffronisation has been done, it has been done by the 125 crore people of the country who gave us a huge mandate. They knew what is RSS, what is BJP. They have given us a mandate to run the country.” 

Here's how Twitter reacted to the Mahesh Sharma's comments:

He was compared to Mukesh Singh.  

Despite being Hindu, Mahesh Sharma sounds like an intolerant, bigoted and petty man. Says a lot about Modi that his culture minister is such
