The senior Congress leader Manish Tewari extended his support to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey who is in the storm of controversy after his picture holding a poster that read “Smash Brahminical Patriarchy” went viral on social media. Taking to his Twitter handle Manish Tewari said that why blame Jack? He further wrote, “Anti Bhrahmanism is the reality of Indian politics. Got accentuated in the North post Mandalisation of Indian politics. We are the new Jews of India and we should just learn to live with it.”

Chairman of Manipal Global Education Mohandas Pai Mohandas Pai took serious offence to Manish Tewari’s tweet and condemned his statement. He said, “The Congress is showing its Hindu-phobia very clearly. They have become anti-Hindu, they are being taught by the Leftists and fundamentalist forces. Manish Tewari is mouthing their official take. Now it is out in the open. The truth is out. They are Hindu-phobic, they are anti-Brahmin, they are an anti-Indian community, they stand for western interest.” Mohandas Pai further said, “You can see their leader(Rahul Gandhi) going to Manipur and making some statements which are totally illogical, talking about a Manipuri religion which does not exist. They are pro-evangelists, pro-conversion and starting now, they are all out in the open. What Manish Tewari has said is outrageous. He said that Brahmins are the new-Jews, that’s the reality. What reality? Does this support abuse of the Indian community. Does this support hatred by the placard? Does this support a foreign CEO coming to our country and abusing our community, spreading hatred, holding a poster? Does this support foreigners coming here and abusing us?”
Mohandas Pai demanded an apology from Twitter and its CEO Jack Dorsey for the anti-Brahmin poster, and he also compared the thinking of Manish Tewari to that of ideology of Adolf Hitler. The Republic World has quoted Mohandas Pai saying, “He is our Law-maker, he’s a former MP and he should be ashamed of himself. And in the best, he will accused of being anti-semitic for saying that Jews are the new Brahmins of India. Anti-semitism is illegal in the west, in many countries. He has shown his negative attitude. It is condemnable and all Indians should stand-up and condemn this man, who has got a very Hitler-like thought. I think he has a mentality of Hitler who sent six million Jews to gas chambers. His attitude is very clear. No community should be abused in this country. What India need is for Jack and Twitter to make an apology for his actions. and even Manish Tewari too should apologize. If Congress supports such hatred then we should take actions against that.”
On Twitter also, Mohandas Pai locked horns with Manish Tewari. He launched blistering attack on Manish Tewari for his absurd statement.
@ManishTewari New Jews? Live with it? Then should hatred be acceptable once you apply your new label? is this not equal to Anti Semitism globally? Is such hatred acceptable? Your illoggical and hateful biases are out for the world to see. Shameful. https://t.co/oOkLrz5PNn

In order to cover up the damage, Manish Tewari tweeted that he unequivocally condemns actions of Twitter CEO.
You missed the irony in the tweet completely so did everyone else. Of course anti- brahminism is wrong as much as being anti any other comm. What Twitter CEO did was totally uncalled for and he should apologise. All that I was flagging was a harmful strain in our ethos which 1/1 https://t.co/JRMjrl2hkJ

This episode points at the inherent Hindu-hatred that Congress and its leaders harbor towards hindus. This hatred keeps manifesting itself in new ways, every other day. Be it anti-Brahmin, anti-Rajput or anti-Sikhs, Congress has been consistent in its hatred towards Hindus of all shapes and forms.
