Sushma Swaraj, the Minister of External Affairs, yesterday tweeted that she has learned to understand "English of all accents and grammar," after joining the ministry.
She told this in response to an user who made fun of a man's tweet, because it was written in broken English.
The troller was later himself trolled by other people on social media and subtly by Swaraj herself.

Swaraj was sworn in as the Minister of External Affairs in the Modi cabinet in 2014.
This made her the second woman to take the office after Indira Gandhi, who held the office twice, when she was also the Prime Minister.
Swaraj has gathered a lot of appreciation for herself for being prompt at replying to people facing problems in foreign countries.

Twitter user @Gavy34196087 reached out to Swaraj, as his friend was facing issues with immigration laws of Malaysia.
He said that he wanted to send his friend, who is suffering from a mental health issue, back to India but is asked by the Malaysian authorities to seek treatment in their country first.
The tweet was written in broken English, which provoked another user.
