New Delhi: There is a second Indian political presence on Twitter, besides Shashi Tharoor, the minister of state for external affairs. And that is of K. Sudhakaran, fellow MP from Kannur in Kerala.
Recently, he too narrated how the bureaucracy was still stuck in the formal language of the Raj era, rejecting applications written in the casual style of an e-mail. Using SMS style spelling to fit in 140 characters, Sudhakaran said, “I didn’t realise the telegraphic language of the e-era is alien to a section of babus while attaching an e-mail I received along with my note to a ministry”. The “babus” returned the e-mail, saying, “sir the attachment has several spelling mistakes; hence please ask the petitioner to resubmit”.
