Saina Nehwal doesn’t give a damn about trolls

Deccan Chronicle  

Even as a large population of the nation, including celebs and ministers, cheered the Hyderabad police for the encounter killing of the four accused in the Disha rape and murder case, badminton ace Saina Nehwal seems to have got isolated and trolled for tweeting her congratulatory message to the police. Then began a barrage of tweets condemning hers, challenging her to tell the UP police to take the same action against Unnao-burnt accused as well as Asifa accused or saying they’d lost respect for her after her tweet encouraging “banana republic” actions of the police. I request, urge, even beg you to have the humility to study an issue before commenting on it.” A Twitter blood bath seemed ready to ensue when Saina replied to Anna’s tweet, saying, “Can’t even imagine the horror the victim felt and then when these rapists are shot down however the incident happened,I’m happy. Soon after this, instead of reacting and replying to these, looked like Saina chose to get away from it all, and began posting pictures of her and P. Kashyap at Sai Praneeth’s wedding reception!
