Social media war-zone: “How’s the Jaish” to “How’s the Josh”

NP NEWS 24 ONLINE:  While 40 families mourned the loss of their loved one, and the nation stood overwhelmed with shock, grief and the desire to do something for the families left behind, on the other side we had our social media platforms fuming with trolls.

The Indian government had carried out a series of air strikes on terror camps of Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) in Balakot.
According to the recent updates, Foreign secretary Vijay Gokhale confirmed the air strike and said a large number of JeM terrorists, trainers and senior commanders were eliminated in “the biggest training camp in Balakot”, which he said was being run by Maulana Yusuf Azhar, the brother-in-law of JeM chief, Maulana Masood Azhar.
Soon after the news broke, social media handles could not keep calm. Congratulatory messages started pouring in for the Indian Air Force and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating ‘How’s the Josh? And memes all over social media platforms.
