Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan shared an old photo on the social network X, stating: 'The eighties called, and I answered.' Meanwhile, other political parties used similar trends to create jokes or comments.
For instance, the Kerala Congress published a fictional scene from Gujarat street, while the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Telangana responded with a falsified bar scene, labeling it 'Louisiana, Italy,' which was apparently a reference to Sonia Gandhi's birthplace.
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor posted photos with his sons, Ishaan and Kanish, writing: 'I decided to join this vintage trend.' This real photograph itself is a statement within the trend based on imagined past.
