UP tourism ends up using too many adjectives in one tweet, gets trolled

They used words like unbeaten, sagacious, astuteness, figurine and rectitude in a single sentence.

State tourism boards have been doing a great job at reaching out to more people and generating more income for their respective states, and have been coming up with brilliant marketing strategies.

While adjectives like vibrant, incredible and many more are used for promoting tourism in states, UP tourism seemed to go a bit overboard with wordplay in a tweet which baffled and amused the social media, since it was a bit too bounteous in its choice of words.

Words like unbeaten, sagacious, astuteness, figurine and rectitude followed by seizure, quietude, engraved and transcendent, all packed into one sentence seemed to be the work of a zealous wordsmith, but was unfortunately not ideal for Twitter.

Twitter users then decided to give their humorous twist to the episode, and witty reactions continued even after the tweet was pulled down by the handle.

Being a bard on the social media might backfire at times, and incidents on the internet cannot be brushed aside simply by deleting a tweet, this is something that UP tourism learned the hard way.
