Omar goes Jhingalala again

EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, July 3: Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah's tweets reflect various aspects of his life. His following has swelled considerably and he believes that the website was an effective means of communication. There is no denying the fact that the website has helped him reach the people, at least those who can afford the luxury of Internet. Omar flew to Jammu Friday and was disappointed to find that his DTH TV connection had not been charged. Omar could not see Wimbeldon finals and posted on Twitter.
"I can't believe NO ONE at home in Jammu remembered to recharge my
Tata Sky account. I can't watch the tennis," the chief minister posted on Twitter, obviously referring to the Wimbledon finals.
In one of his latest posts, Abdullah said: "My life is 'jhingalala' again." The feelings most probably came after Prime Minister's assurance of a full term in office. Omar has won some detractors as well. People believe he cannot be a serious Chief Minister because he spends most of his time on the Twitter.
But Abdullah defended his tweeting right by posting last month: "How much time does it take to post 140 characters on the site? Besides, my following on the site might not be very huge, but it is an important interactive forum."
