The curious case of the disappearing Twitter bio of Congress social media warrior Divya Spandana (Ramya) sparked frenzied media speculation about her troubles in the party. But after being silent and without a bio for three days on Twitter, she bounced back, blamed a mysterious bug and reposted her old designation. It says once again: “Actor, Former Member of Parliament, currently handling Social Media & Digital Communications for the Congress party.” But Divya Spandana is not Congress president Rahul Gandhi’s Twitter guru, and is no longer part of the core team that suggests ideas for his tweets. Her influence in Rahul Gandhi’s social media universe has been waning incrementally since the past year. Contrary to popular perception among the media, politicians and Delhi wonks, Spandana hasn’t had a say in Rahul Gandhi’s Twitter account for several months now. She only handles the Congress’ social media account.
