#ChowkidarChorHai is a rage. And for a reason. Maybe Joshi and Pandey misread the popular mood. https://t.co/yNQkDnuQpy

It may be mentioned that the slogan ‘Chowkidar Chor Hai’ was coined by Congress President, Mr. Rahul Gandhi to target PM Mr. Narendra Modi. Mr. Rahul claims that Mr. Modi is involved in alleged Rafale scam.
In 2014, Mr. Narendra Modi had said that he would function as the country’s chowkidar.
