Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar was on Saturday trolled on the social media for expressing his concern over women consuming alcohol.
"I have begun to fear now because even girls have started drinking beer. The tolerance limit is being crossed," said Parrikar on Friday at an event.
However, his statement did not go down well with the Twitterati, who savagely tore into the Chief Minister while using a hashtag "GirlsWhoDrinkBeer"
To Sir, With Love.

Mahatma Gandhi's great-grandson Tushar Gandhi also hit out at Parrikar.
PM is annoyed by women who laugh, Parrikar is scared of girls drinking beer. Yogi offers solution keep them tied to the door post.

Another also questioned as whether Parrikar is even aware of the century he was living in.
Yes girls drink beer and as long as they aren't breaking the law I cannot see how this is worrying. Please wake up and realize this is 2018! @manoharparrikar

A woman also asked the Chief Minister whether they need to go through sex change operation for a glass of beer.
