Amruta Fadnavis '3% divorce due to traffic' comment sparks meme fest on Twitter |

It is no brilliant piece of insight that traffic congestion and noise can cause stress, fatigue, irritability, and rage in commuters. Former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis's wife Amruta Fadnavis has stretched the analogy further and said that traffic jams can play havoc with ‘family time’ and cause three per cent of the divorces in Mumbai.

Amruta made the comment after attending a function organized by a local BJP unit on Friday. She was asked by reporters about the condition of the roads in the city.

“....I am saying this as a common citizen because daily I see potholes and traffic jams. Do you know how many divorces are taking place because of it in Mumbai? Three per cent," she said.

Amruta, possibly in good faith, was merely suggesting that the stress caused by traffic jams may often be carried home, where the person who is stressed may misdirect their anger towards their spouse or children.

However, the netizens did not agree with Amruta prognosis and brutally trolled her for the remarks.
