So, what did you do when you were 21?
It all started after 21-year-old climate activist Disha Ravi was arrested for allegedly editing the toolkit shared by Greta Thunberg.
What did you achieve when you were 21? Did you leave home to follow your passion? Did you win a medal for the country? It is currently the million-dollar question that’s trending on Twitter. From people sharing jokes to seriously listing out their achievements at the young age, the social media platform is buzzing with activity. So much so that Kangana Ranaut, too, took part in the #at21 challenge. However, the actor got mercilessly trolled by netizens as usual.
It all started after 21-year-old climate activist Disha Ravi was arrested for allegedly editing the toolkit shared by Greta Thunberg. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, “Arrest of 21 yr old Disha Ravi is an unprecedented attack on Democracy. Supporting our farmers is not a crime (sic).”
