IAS officer Raj Shekhar shared a picture that shows him in the kitchen
Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer Raj Shekhar recently tried his hand at cooking and shared a picture from his kitchen on Twitter – but hawk-eyed social media users noticed that something was not right. . When Mr Shekhar posted a picture of himself cooking poha on Sunday, Twitter users were delighted to see that the gas burner under his cooking pot was not burning. The inspection made Mr. Shekhar the target of some mild-mannered jokes on the microblogging platform, though some users also came to his rescue, stating that the gas must have been turned off after the poha was cooked.
“Please wish me good luck. Trying my luck in cooking… Preparing Poha for breakfast under the guidance of Home Minister [sic]The Commissioner of Kanpur shared the picture, in which he is seen smiling for the camera wearing earphones and holding a spatula.
please wish me the best

Shiv Sena’s Priyanka Chaturvedi used the picture as an opportunity to take a dig at the rising price of cooking gas.
Also thanks to the strong message to the government to make cooking gas so cheap that cooking is possible without it, the heat instead of the stove comes from collective anger. ,

The IAS officer was criticized for the picture, which many said was staged.
The stove is off. Airpods are on. A typical Indian bureaucrat.
