Focus: When #PappuFans Celebrated #AAPrilFoolsDay!

What's flooding your Twitter timeline right now? What has swamped your Facebook feed at the moment? Chances are words like "back-stabbing" and "anti-party activities" are the culprits along with names of Aam Aadmi Party leaders.

The ideological conflict between Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and dissident leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan, quite obviously, is social media's favourite obsession now.

So it doesn't come as surprising that the hashtag #AAPrilFoolsDay is currently the top trend on Twitter.

We had earlier reported that on April Fool's Day, BJP and Congress plan to relive the good old times and set Twitter ablaze with #PappuDay and #FekuDay hashtags. Prior to the 2014 general elections Modi was termed Feku, and Rahul Gandhi called Pappu by supporters of the opposition parties.

However, fans of AAP and AAP's debacles have together made sure that Feku, Pappu pale in comparison to Kejriwal.
