Anand Mahindra's Viral Tweet On Banking System Triggers A New Debate Amid SVB Crisis

Beyond his work, inustrialist Anand Mahindra is widely known for his savvy Twitter handle through which the Chairman of the Mahindra Group often posts thought-provoking tweets. In a latest viral tweet, Anand Mahindra has taken a dig at the current situation of the world's banking system. With Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) crisis reaching its pinnacel and the US banking system coming under scanner, the viral tweet by Mahindra has not just left the internet in splits but also started a debate.

In the viral tweet, Anand Mahindra has shared an image that depicts a leopard, a common person and possibly a temple or some religious/holy entity. With regards to the picture, Mahindra has said, "Why does this remind me of the world’s banking system at this point in time??"

Posted this morning, the tweet has already started getting viral and so far (at the time of writing this story) garnered over 1,24,000 views, over 200 retweets and over 3,500 likes.

While several people have tried to decode what the Mahindra Group's Chairperson means, others have simply laughed on it while slyly taking note of the context. One such person is Rama Suganthan, Vice President, Tamil Nadu Congress Committee, who also happens to be a Twitter verified account. He wrote, "Over ambitious businesses takes the banks down with them!"

Another verified Twitter user by the name of CS Krishne Gowda C Auditor wrote, "Not following Good Corporate Governance norms.  (Required protection & care in this pic, even after knowing he is going to a place where wild animals may live).👍"

Another CA, also a verified account went ahead and tried to tweak the caption shared by Anand Mahindra. The user, as per Twitter profile, Rakesh Bhandari wrote, "CORRECTED: Why does this remind me of the world’s banking system Minus India at this point in time??"
