"I'll Be Taking Legal Action": Anand Mahindra On Quote Wrongly Attributed To Him

"Another completely fabricated quote falsely attributed to me," wrote Anand Mahindra

Industrialist Anand Mahindra has once again called out a quote wrongly attributed to him. The Chairman of Mahindra Group took to Twitter this Sunday to share a screenshot of the quote in question, saying that it was "completely fabricated". He also warned of legal action and used two memes to express his displeasure.  As a colleague told me: ‘It looks like it's hunting season on you with miscreants on the internet.' Another completely fabricated quote falsely attributed to me. I'll be taking legal action. Meanwhile, I'm going to post the 2 memes to the right, below, whenever I spot more fakes! pic.twitter.com/9DPM5k0Kde Sir, everytime you faces such fake posts.. Just reply by this meme pic.twitter.com/AKblEPgX0N Sir you @anandmahindra & @RNTata2000 are already with many quotes widely used as whatsaap Good morning messages for all the 40+ year old uncles in all regional languages ???????????? https://t.co/7tXhWtXAoI From following you on Twitter & reading your Tweets & knowing of your philanthropic nature & kindness to all, I can't believe anyone would even think to write such nonsense & put your name to it.

"An average Indian man spends his days following women on social media, putting his hopes into sports teams and leaving his dreams in the hands of a politician that doesn't care," read the quote that was falsely attributed to Mr Mahindra, who is an active Twitter user with a following of over 8.5 million. 

The screenshot shared by Mr Mahindra shows that the quote was uploaded on an Instagram page called "start_upfounder".
