The twitter handle of Shubham is currently unavailable and it is assumed to be a bot account that is being run my miscreants. A Twitter bot is a type of bot software that controls a Twitter account via the Twitter API. The bot software may autonomously perform actions such as tweeting, re-tweeting, liking, following, unfollowing, or direct messaging other accounts.

However, the prompt reply of Bank of Baroda and their immediate action of investigating about the alleged employee is being lauded by the micro blogging social media users. They requested the Bank to continue their good service in coming days as well.
