Chetan Bhagat gets trolled again

Today he used the micro blogging site to ask "What do historians do?" and faced massive backlash.

Author Chetan Bhagat came under severe criticism on micro-blogging site Twitter after he criticised historians who slammed the Central government for ‘growing instances of intolerance’ in the country. In a post on Twitter, he wrote “What do historians do? I am genuinely curious. This happened. Then this happened. Then this. Ok work done for the day.”


As soon as he said it, Twitterati didn’t wait to respond.

Though, he later said it was a joke.


 

This is not the first time Bhagat has used this term “Joke. Duh!”. Recently he tweeted about the writers who have returned their Sahitya Akademi Awards to protest against intolerance and faced a backlash and called that a joke too.
