BJP legal cell in charge’s faux pas; quotes Britannia to make ‘a point’ about Parle

Charu Pragya, Bharatiya Janata party’s national in charge of legal cell tweeted Britannia Annual Report for 2018-19 data to make her point about Parle.

On August 21, Parle Products Pvt Ltd revealed that it might cut off upto 10,000 jobs as declining economic growth and falling consumption in the rural India could cause production cuts, a company executive of Parle Products said on Wednesday.

The fall in Parle’s biscuit sales means company may have to slash production, which may result in job cuts of 8,000-10,000 people, Mayank Shah, category head at Parle had said.

“The situation is so bad, that if the government doesn’t intervene immediately … we may be forced to eliminate these positions,” he said.

Referring to Mayank Shah’s statement as lie, Charu instead of Parle quoted a Britannia data saying “Check their Annual Report for 2018-19, they have 4480 employees. How are they planning to lay off 10,000 employees then?”

Twitterati was quick to point out the faux pas saying that the credibility of the government is damaged if the in charge of the ruling party's legal cell, who is followed by PM Modi commits such a blunder.
