New Delhi: Senior Executive Editor of NDTV, Ravish Kumar on Sunday schooled a social media user who was abusing Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

On an Instagram post, Ravish Kumar had written about a book authored by BBC Journalist Priyanka Dubey, “No Nation for Women: Reportage on Rape from India, the World's Largest Democracy” and was lauding her book for wide coverage of rapes in India.

An Instagram user commented on the post and criticized UP CM Yogi Adityanath, comparing him to dog. The user wrote in the comment “When a dog goes berserk, you should shoot him dead. Same is the case with Yogi Adityanath”.

Ravish Kumar took note of the comment and replied to the comment adding that people have the freedom to criticize political leaders, but one should also mind their language while doing so.

“Your language is foul. Criticize, but mind your language” Ravish Kumar wrote in reply.
