Former Union Minister Mani Shankar Aiyar today said somebody has opened a "parody" Twitter account in his name and asserted that he does not have any presence on this social media platform.
"Somebody has opened a 'parody account' on Twitter in my name and attributed to me a remark I never made," Aiyar said in a statement.
"As some of the respondents to the remark appear not to have understood that it was from a 'parody account', this is to clarify that I do not have a twitter account and have never had one," the 75-year-old former Rajya Sabha member asserted.
