Union Minister Anantkumar Hegde on Friday stoked a controversy by calling Congress President Rahul Gandhi a moron for his tweet that ‘Modilies’ is a new word in the English dictionary. “My Twitter account has been breached twice in the past one week and certain tweets have been posted on my timeline which has been discarded and deleted. There is no question of justifying Gandhi ji’s murder. We all have full respect for Gandhi ji’s contribution to the nation,” he posted. “We can confirm that the image showing the entry ’Modilie’ is fake and does not exist in any of our Oxford Dictionaries,” Oxford Dictionaries tweeted.
