Bengaluru, Feb 9: AICC social media and digital communications head Ramya on Thursday claimed that she did not train party workers on creating fake social media accounts, contrary to a video clip that went viral earlier this week.
"The video has been edited to suggest that I was teaching a lesson on creating fake accounts," Ramya told reporters. "I never said that fake accounts should be created."
In the 1.34-minute-long video clip, Ramya was seen and heard asking Youth Congress members to create multiple accounts. Ramya said she was only explaining the difference between bots, fake accounts and multiple accounts. "I told them that they should have separate accounts - one personal and another party-related."
While clarifying, she cited the example of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying he had three accounts in his name. When asked to comment on the BJP filing a police complaint against her, Ramya said: "So what?"
Ramya said her controversial TOP-POT tweet had garnered unnecessary attention. "There's no need to attach special meaning to it. Like Modi said, I was just referring to potato, onion and tomato (POT)," she said. Ramya's tweet wondering whether Modi was high on pot (marijuana) drew sharp reactions from across party lines.
Ramya reviewed the party's social media operations and held discussions with social media coordinators from 125 Assembly constituencies at the Congress' headquarters here on Thursday.

I do not know why media is making some big issues. Most of us have many FB accounts, Email Ids. This is not like Aadhar or Passport where it is the identity. Even in US, I know many senators having many FB accounts. They cannot share their personal details on FB so they have personal, political and regular friends.
Its not your fault. Politics isn't your cup of tea. It is something that is beyond your abilities! Sumne acting madkond iddidre yeshto chennagittu alva? Why on earth do you need all this? Is it worth?
...she just wanted to follow Kejribhai and thought abusing Modi would be a good idea...poor thing paid for it....the way it looks spandana will now onwards beat slower and more sensibly...
When will Ramya make public her smart strategy to take over Nehru dynasty to become all-powerful in Congress party and announce her secret master-stroke engagement to Rahu ?
I like her witty tweet and proud of her success she achieved at young age. She is more smart courage than feku supporter stone aged most superstious backward mindset RSS criminals (especially pucking uneducated ignorant brainwashed male and from mangalore chaddi taliban region) from karnataka. Best part, she doesn't give rats to 1000s of hate, abuse message from 3rd class chaddi criminals. RSS
