Pakistan’s Science and Technology Minister Fawad Choudhary, infamous for his foolish comments, yet again gave us meme content on Friday. Speaking at a gathering, Choudhary not only pronounced SUPARCO as ‘SPRACO’, but also urged the organization “to check the feasibility of providing internet to caged citizens of Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir via satellite”

The comment by Choudhary tickled enough bones on either side of the boundary, thus starting a troll fest once and for all.
