In a world dominated by memes on social media, the two senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders - Nirmala Sitharaman and Piyush Goyal - became a matter of laughter after their remarks went viral. Many social media enthusiasts came our searching for logic and accuracy in these remarks. Sitharaman is the Union Finance Minister while Piyush Goyal heads the Railway portfolio.
Sitharaman remarks were all over the internet, apart from news reports, mostly in form of memes with #BoycottMillennials, after she blamed the downfall of the automobile industry on ‘millennials’ for using services of Ola and Uber.Similarly, Goyal came into the light while speaking in defence of the crumbling economic condition in the country, after he said that “Math did not help Einstein discover gravity”. Members of the internet turned made his statement viral with #EinsteinGoyal.When a hashtag like #BoycottMillenials is getting in trend I wonder what exactly are they looking out from us, we can't afford to get a car right now, we are rejected by autos, on the other hand, few us can actually afford to travel with #OlaUber so we're doing that.

Now, the students and scientists seem confused after Piyush Goyal’s blunderous statement. On social media, some are correcting the Union Minister asserting that it was Newton who discovered Gravity. Moreover, the mathematics denounced by Goyal helped Newton understand gravity.Opindia staff busy in rediscovering the facts from Newton's life to establish that gharwale Newton ko pyar se Einstein bulate the.

However, later Goyal tried to clarify his statement saying the comment he made had a certain context. "Unfortunately, some friends have sought to remove the context, pick up one line and create a very mischievous narrative," said the Union Minister.
In another blunder, Goyal went on to say while rectifying his earlier remark, "Math did help Einstein discover gravity." However, mantriji got it wrong again.
