Don't text, tweet in class, Milind Deora tells Derek O'Brien
April 20, 2015 11:39
It's an encore from Milind Deora and Derek O'Brien.
Just ahead of the reconvened Budget session of Parliament Deora tweeted O'Brien and BJD MP Jay Panda saying: @quizderek @PandaJay Boys, please don't forget my earlier advice - not to text or tweet during classes!
To which TMC spokesperson and Rajya Sabha MP Derek O'Brien replied, @quizderek @milinddeora @PandaJay Only Jay is in class today. My school ( RS ) closed today. Milind, my friend, come back to school soon :)
An exchange of tweets between these three politicians, two of them MPs sitting in a parliamentary committee meeting, amused many on social media in February.
This is what Panda, a social media savvy politician had tweeted "Some 1st time MPs' conduct is guided by their idea of Parlmt as shown by media. Out of sync in committee mtgs (in-camera & v.difft ambience) (sic)."
Moments later, Trinamool Congress member Derek O'Brien responded, "Hmmm sitting three seats away from you ...wink :)"
Congress leader Milind Deora was not in the meeting, but apparently had the last word.
"@quizderek @PandaJay put away your smartphones and get back to work guys," he tweeted with a wink.
Deora, a former MP, lost the national election last year.
