IT Minister Kapil Sibal set to join Twitterati

As political heavyweights flocked to social media to expand their profile and slug it out with detractors, one notable absentee was Kapil Sibal, the combative telecom and IT minister. Known for famously penning poetry on his BlackBerry, Sibal was recently asked why he has stayed away from Twitter. His cryptic reply: “Wait and watch.” Last heard, his Twitter account was being set up. Netizens, watch out for those 140 character barbs!
