Bengaluru: Lavanya Ballal Jain, a spokesperson for the Congress party, has become the target of online trolling after a heated TV debate with BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla. The incident occurred during a live interview where Poonawalla made comments on Jain's name, leading to a sharp exchange between the two.

Lavanya Ballal Jain took to social media to express her displeasure, accusing Poonawalla of insulting her name and religion during the TV interview. She referred to the BJP spokesperson as a 'cheapster' and urged him to refrain from making vulgar comments during interviews. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Jain claimed that Poonawalla was on the payroll of one of the richest Jain individuals, indirectly alluding to Gautam Adani.

The controversy escalated when Shehzad Poonawalla posted a video clip of the TV interview on his social media account, questioning why Jain was triggered by his factual statements. The video showed Poonawalla discussing developmental projects by the Centre in southern states and challenging Jain on Congress's contributions to development.

During the debate, Poonawalla mockingly referred to Lavanya Ballal Jain as 'Lavanya BJ,' leading to a sharp retort from Jain. She demanded that Poonawalla refrain from making vulgar inferences and accused him of insulting her name with sly and derogatory comments.

Following the TV debate, Lavanya Ballal Jain faced online trolling and derogatory remarks on social media platforms, particularly on X, where the hashtag #LavanyaBJ gained traction. The hashtag contains a derogatory term, further intensifying the online attacks against the Congress spokesperson.
