Swamy wants Raghuram Rajan gone, Twitter suggests 'economists' Sadhvi Prachi, Yogi Adityanath as replacements

Even as BJP leader, and supreme free thinker Subramanian Swamy launched a fresh attack on Reserve Bank of India Governor Raghuram Rajan, social media decided it had had enough.

According to PTI, Subramanian Swamy has asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to start a CBI-led probe against the popular RBI chief for allegedly "flouting rules while granting 10 small finance bank licences".

Swamy, a Rajya Sabha MP, had earlier sent a written petition to the Prime Minister to dismiss Rajan after he "failed to lower interest rates and boost the economy".

Rajan on the other hand has refused to retaliate to Swamy's constant vitriol.

Twitter, however, is bound by no such constraints or good manners. So when #WhyRajanMustGo trended this morning, after being obviously boosted by Swamy's supporters, Twitterati took it up with gusto and made the hashtag their own.

The iron-clad logic of the other side
