Bengaluru, October 13: “Mr. Narendra Modi, you have not served the people as Pradhan Sevak. When the defaulters fled the country right in front of your eyes, being the Chowkidar,you have not spoken a word. At least speak now on Rafale deal”. This is how former chief minister Siddaramaiah taunted Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Twitter.
If you have shown the loyalty, being shown to Ambani in the Rafale deal, to the country, the value of the Indian currency would not have crossed Rs 74 before the Dollar. This is the first time in the history of the country that a Prime Minister had toured foreign countries to strike a deal for a capitalist, he tweeted.
When the Prime Minister himself became a middleman for a private company, what about the future of the public sector units, he questioned and took Narendra Modi into task in strong words.
ಮಾನ್ಯ @narendramodi ಅವರೇ, ಪ್ರಧಾನ ಸೇವಕರಾಗಿ ಜನ ಸೇವೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾಡಲಿಲ್ಲ, ಚೌಕಿದಾರರಾಗಿ ಕಣ್ಣ ಮುಂದೆಯೇ ಸಾಲಗಾರರು ಓಡಿ ಹೋದರೂ ಮಾತನಾಡಲಿಲ್ಲ, #RafaleDeal ಬಗ್ಗೆಯಾದರೂ ಮಾತನಾಡಿ.#RafaleDeal ನಲ್ಲಿ ತಾವು ಅಂಬಾನಿಯವರಿಗೆ ತೋರುತ್ತಿರುವ ನಿಷ್ಠೆಯನ್ನು ದೇಶದ ಬಗೆಗೆ ತೋರಿದ್ದರೆ ಡಾಲರ್ ಮೌಲ್ಯ ಇಂದು ರೂ.74ರ ಗಡಿ ದಾಟುತ್ತಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ.

New Delhi: An Indian CEO has triggered widespread debate on social media after reportedly spending Rs 14 lakh on a Louis Vuitton suitcase designed for his dog. Ajay Thakore, CEO of Doctor Multimedia, shared a video on Instagram showcasing the extravagant purchase, which has since drawn mixed reactions.
In the video, Thakore is seen entering a Louis Vuitton store, stating, "I think my dog has something to pick up." He then reveals the "Bone Trunk," a bone-shaped, hard-shell suitcase complete with a varnished wooden tray and two bowls. The video’s caption read, "Aspen's always spending money like there's no tomorrow. $20k Louis Vuitton bone trunk."
The post quickly went viral, with many users expressing shock and disbelief. Some criticized the CEO’s indulgence, questioning the morality of spending such a large sum on a pet accessory when pressing issues like poverty and animal welfare exist. Comments ranged from disbelief to sharp criticism, with one user remarking, "Imagine how far $20k would go at an animal rescue." Others viewed it as a reflection of societal excess, calling it a "grotesque illustration of what's wrong in society."
However, Thakore also found support from some users, who defended his right to spend his wealth as he pleased. One commenter noted the irony of criticism coming from people who indulge in expensive gadgets, writing, "It's funny how many condemn this spending yet think nothing of buying an $800 iPhone without considering charity."
