Divyanka Tripathi slammed for being more concerned about the metro construction amidst the coronavirus outbreak

Coronavirus is on the rise and everyone is in a frenzy currently. Everyone is taking the necessary precautions to avoid coming in contact with the virus. Celebrities are using the social media platform to raise as much awareness as they can. But, television actress Divyanka Tripathi’s latest tweet amid the COVID-19 pandemic received a lot of backlash. The actress was fired for being more interested in the metro work than the current state of the world.

Divyanka had taken to her Twitter handle to share a video of herself, in which she was heard saying, that once Corona is gone then metro work will get over soon as workers can now function without hassles. The actress had written, “With such less traffic in Mumbai, it seems like an opportunity to quickly complete Metro, bridges and smooth roads.” However, she has taken the tweet down now.

But, Twitterati just could not look past the insensitivity in Divyanka’s tweet and gave her a lesson about the equality of life. One user wrote, “But DT those labour workers r humans too and roads n metros can be built later on when things get settled down..why to keep their lives at stake considering so many labour workers works.“Another commented, “Madam..lives of workers aren’t important? How they should come for work if entire India is asked to stay at home? They may be daily labour but yet govt won’t allow fathering for work on public projects right ?”

*Quickly” is the Key but I doubt if that would happen because that ain’t the concern right now and it should not be as well. Better to stay indoors and practice strict hygiene for the betterment of everyone!

Interestingly, Divyanka was quick to realize her mistake and she apologized saying, “My apologies. Point taken.”

But looks like even after apologizing she was slammed by many Twitter users, so she again tweeted saying, “We all are humans and susceptible to errors. In this volatile & violent social media world, an important question is: If someone’s capable of realizing and apologizing..ARE YOU CAPABLE OF FORGIVING AND MOVING ON? Should everything be News & point of argument? Where’s humanity there?”
