'Counting fingers, not hearts': Shehzad Poonawalla mocks Rahul's Gen Z post
Shehzad Poonawalla criticised Rahul Gandhi's recent social media post. He interpreted Gandhi's gesture as counting corruption and bribes daily. Poonawalla accused the Gandhi family of extensive involvement in corruption. Rahul Gandhi had shared a Korean finger heart gesture on Friendship Day. This outreach aimed to connect with younger audiences on social media.
Former BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla mocked Rahul Gandhi's post for Gen Z on Friendship Day, claiming the Korean finger heart emoji used in the message was "counting fingers". Poonawalla, a former Congress spokesperson who resigned from the BJP, accused the Gandhi family and the Congress party of corruption. In a video on X, Poonawalla demonstrated the gesture, saying "Counting corruption every day.
Taking corruption bribes every day. The Gandhi family has more than an apprenticeship in this — they have a PhD. Ask the Karnataka government... 'counting fingers'." Earlier, Rahul Gandhi posted a photo on Instagram, using the gesture and writing "Still a student, still learning something new every day. Today's lesson: it's Friendship Day and this 🫰 is a heart. Happy Friendship Day, everyone. Lots of love!"
