Industrialist Anil Ambani’s eldest son Anmol, who is executive director of Reliance Capital, on Tuesday created a flutter on social media with a string of Twitter posts that not only tore into lockdowns—which he said “destroy the very backbone of our society and economy”—but said they were “about control” and were “part of a much larger and very sinister plan…to control every aspect of your life”.

The first tweet said: “Professional ‘actors’ can continue shooting their films.

Professional ‘cricketers’ can play their sport late into the night.

Professional ‘politicians’ can continue their rallies with masses of people.

But YOUR business or work is not ESSENTIAL.
