Twitterati today slammed the visit of the European Parliament members (MEPs) to Kashmir.
They also called out the role of Madi Sharma, who has attracted attention for organising the visit. Several people on Twitter asked why Opposition MPs had not been allowed to visit Jammu and Kashmir and called the MEP visit a 'PR stunt'.
Twitter users asked why Sharma paid such a hefty amount for the trip as well as raised questions on her role as an 'international broker'.
The Q is why will @MadiSharma1 pay such a hefty amount for this, most likely our Govt. is paying! If yes, why do we need to buy international support? When @AmitShah ji was yelling to not make it an international issue! Mota bhai saab Golmaal che ne? #MadiSharma #EUMPsInKashmir https://t.co/B9gGJggeNj

The point of debate isn't why #EUMPsInKashmir ,but the issue is what was the need for an international broker #MadiSharma to bring them to #Kashmir & why allowed a press interaction who they're to judge?

Diabolocal & Dubious.
The GOI is officially is a soup as far as this is concerned. PR charade gone awry and how. Shameful.

realises or knows external affairs has been privatised and handed over to an NGO. How else would you explain the visit of EU MPs? #MadiSharma
Besides the jibe at Madi Sharma, many Twitter trained their guns at the Modi government calling the visit a 'political drama,' a 'PR stunt' and a 'vacation.'
So basically,

There's governance and government to solve people's problems and bring peace in the country.
But here we have 365 days of political drama due to which the given peace is also taken off, and the real problem is our government :))#bjpshivsena #EUMPsInKashmir #NCP
Can someone help me understand, how a PR stunt can conceal violations of free movement, free speech and unjustified detentions?

I feel this stunt will prove to be a boomerang for #Modi govt.
The truth will remain truth. #EUMPsInKashmir #370abrogation

And as usual, Twitterati could not keep themselves away from taking potshots at the lawmakers.
