(MENAFN- Live Mint) Bengaluru traffic has often been the talk of the town, with netizens cracking jokes and memes about it. However, in an unusual incident, the internet reacted bitterly after a woman compared a '149 hour drive in Russia' to Bengaluru traffic.
The original post, accompanied by a map, claimed,“You can drive for 149 hours across Russia and still be in Russia.” A Bengaluru woman, who goes by the name of Anagha on X, reposted the same, stating "You can do that in Bangalore traffic too."
Netizens 'offended' by Bengaluru traffic joke
The woman's retort had several netizens fuming on the social media platform X. "Not always the jokes are good, this attitude must stop, If that was the case you could not have posted by sitting in 4 walled room. It is not different from any cities also and also bringing any Indian city by Indian is unwarranted," commented one user.
