It was not just Arvind Kejriwal who used Twitter to condemn the RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat's remark on Mother Teresa.

"Mother Teresa's service would have been good. But it used to have one objective, to convert the person, who was being served, into a Christian," Bhagwat had said while speaking at a function organised by NGO Apna Ghar near Bharatpur, Rajasthan.
"The question is not about conversion but if this (conversion) is done in the name of service, then that service gets devalued," he had said.
"But here (at the NGO), the objective is purely service of poor and helpless people," Bhagwat had added.
After Bhagwat alleged that Mother Teresa helped the poor with the intention to convert them to Christianity, people on Twitter tweeted against Bhagwat and some posted statements in support of Mother Teresa.
Due to the uproar created by his statement, #RSSQuestionsTeresa became the top trend on Twitter in India. Here are some of the prominent tweets:
