Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has landed in a Twitter storm after tweeting >today's cartoon from The Hindu . The cartoon by Surendra shows some of the raging issues faced by the government playing out on a burning 'Make in India' stage, a reference to the February 14 fire accident at the ‘Make In India Week’ event at Girgaum Chowpatty in Mumbai.

The point of 'contention' in the cartoon was the depiction of a flying 'foot soldier' whose tail is afire and is shouting, "Done sir, all attention is on JNU!". Soon #KejriwalInsultsHanuman started trending on Twitter.

The other 'burning issues' shown are the rupee slide, Pathankot attacks, and the upcoming Assembly polls.

Here's the cartoon:
