Indian Christian activist John Dayal, who has a hostile relationship with Hindutva supporters, got into a major Twitter clash with them on Saturday.
As the trolls descended taunting John Dayal on cases of sex abuse in Church, he was seen swinging sword in both arms in Jedi style to fend off the attack.
As they say, it all started on Friday when someone sought his response on a report on sexual misconduct of priests.

As the trolls descended taunting John Dayal on cases of sex abuse in Church, he was seen swinging sword in both arms in Jedi style to fend off the attack.
As they say, it all started on Friday when someone sought his response on a report on sexual misconduct of priests.
John Dayal’s response was swift and hard hitting. He wondered why Khakis - meaning RSS or Hindutva supporters - were fixated with deviant sex.
That opened the floodgates for trolls to take him on a range of issues but focusing mostly on the sex scandals of the Church. John Dayal took the battle to troll camp challenging them to outgrow their fake names, among other things.
