Fake PM, Sonia profiles flood Twitter, Facebook

"JPC might include Isro and Adarsh Scams. Congress has nothing to hide because what's hidden will never be found." This is what a tweet by " Sonia Gandhi " says. But hold your breath, this is fake. There are several such postings one can find from sham accounts of politicians and top celebrities on popular social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook.

And it seems these sites have emerged as a nuisance for some top leaders, especially the Congress president and prime minister Manmohan Singh . There are a number of accounts in both Twitter and Facebook in the name of Sonia and the prime minister whose tweets from their fake accounts are based on alleged corruption in 2G spectrum allocation, S-band deal, Commonwealth Games and Adarsh Society.

A posting on one of Sonia's fake twitter accounts says, "After careful evaluation of outcome, Congress high council has agreed for JPC. We have nothing to hide." Another tweet from her says, "Most countries make people poor through taxes. We make people like Kalmadi rich. That's what makes us so wonderful."

A tweet from an account named after prime minister Singh says, "Madam ji, Left can never be right ji. Purulia can never be Rae Barreily ji."
