Twitter user Insinuates the depiction of Hindu deities by NASA Intern as Fascism and Nazism.
In response to NASA's tweet inviting fall applications with the picture of four NASA interns, including the one of Pratima Roy that had Hindu Goddesses in the background, a Twitter user (now deleted account), Dr. Sambit Patra (possibly a fake name), tweeted: "Dear Nasa, India is multi-religious country, right now rules by right wing fascist Hindus, your choice of depicting the Indian is poor and primitive, it's like having a German Kid from 1930's with a Nazi T-Shirt on and not acknowledging the Jews. You have pretty poor PR dept.".
