However, on Friday, a disgruntled Zomato client tagged KTR, with a picture of chicken biryani, and claimed that despite placing an order for chicken biryani with 'extra masala and chicken piece', it was not supplied by the food delivery service.
KTR, who is the chief minister's son, was taken aback by the tweet. "And why am I tagged on this brother? What do you expect me to do?" he queried with emojis.
The bizarre request and the minister's puzzled response had the Twitterati in splits.
However, after the tweet went viral, the tweet was deleted by the netitzen who had tagged the minister while complaining against the online food delivery platform on Twitter.
