New Delhi: A Google search result “glitch” has taken many netizens by a storm after the search giant threw up an image of PM Narendra Modi instead of Jawahar Lal Nehru when searched for ‘India first PM’. 

The Congress party has raised objections to this.

However many Twitter users questioned Google for this glitch and posted their reactions along with the screenshots.

Congress leader Ashok Tanwar asked Google to correct the error. “Type ‘India first pm’ in google and result is Mr.Narendra Modi’s photo instead of Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru. @Google Pls correct it.. How come you also fell in the trap of Mr.Modi?” he said.

Actually, the Wikipedia page of the list of Indian prime ministers showcases PM Narendra Modi’s image at the top, the reason why may be displayed on the search bar upon typing ‘India’s first PM’, Indianexpress.com reports. Upon opening the link, Wikipedia page clearly states that Narendra Modi “is the current (14th) Prime Minister of India, since 26 May 2014”.

However, Google has not yet responded to any of these questions.
