Amul’s cheeky print ads need no introduction, do they?Time and again, they have delivered hilarious takes and digs on politicians, topical controversies or moments of joy.
And, while it’s difficult to choose among all of these brilliant cartoons they’ve done in the past, it’s safe to say that their latest cartoon on the controversy surrounding politician Subramanian Swamy’s comments on RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan takes the cake!
Though, they’ve tried playing it safe, one can very well assume which side they are on. We especially like 'second helping please!'
This is what the ad looks like-

It all started when on May 12, BJP’s Subramanian Swamy slammed the RBI Governor for his decision to increase rates.
"I don't think he is fit for the country. His decision to increase interest rates to reduce inflation and stabilise the economy has backfired and badly affected the nation. All the industries have collapsed and as a result unemployment has increased," Swamy had said, adding that Rajan should be sent back to Chicago at the earliest.
Swamy even wrote to the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi asking for the immediate sacking of the RBI Governor, alleging that is ‘mentally not fully Indian’ and has wrecked the economy.
His comments naturally caused a lot of debate and speculations are rife on whether Rajan will be given a second term after his first term comes to an end on September.
