Tweet From Handle Set Up To Answer GST-Related Questions Has Many Amused

In May, the government set up an official Twitter handle to answer questions related to the new Goods and Services Tax (GST). But it's a cryptic tweet, now deleted, that got the Internet's attention on Saturday. The tweet, a simple "No," was presumably a typo while responding to a query but thanks to Twitter, it quickly became a meme. The tweet had many people thinking up laugh-out-loud funny questions, wondering what the "no" might be in response to.
 

No.

It took minutes for the typo to become a meme:

More proof that "Think before you tweet" is the new "Look before you leap" - a lesson author Chetan Bhagat recently learnt the hard way.
