Jiyo Parsi trending on Twitter

The Government's newest Ad campaign to save the dwindling Parsi population asking them to produce babies has become the hottest talk in social media circles.

From appreciation and anger to humour and one-liners, Twitter is abuzz with loads of messages.

Take a look

I'm now waiting for the Kodavas to come out with a badukuKodava campaign. After all, we are also a diminishing race #JiyoParsi

You cannot save a community by telling them to marry & procreate thru absurd copy! You can by living in 2014 & being open minded #JiyoParsi

As for this #JiyoParsi campaign, I'm going to say YUCK! How disgusting, tasteless & repulsive! Offended as a woman, Indian and human.

Still don't understand why #JiyoParsi should be funded by the govt. The richest community in India can certainly take care of its own issues

I'm Confused is #JiyoParsi, a Matrimonial or a Fertility center?

The #JiyoParsi ads are in such bad taste "@qzindia: India is begging this group to multiply.. http://t.co/3bdqLkt92i pic.twitter.com/zlxCmM6ZoB"

#JiyoParsi India is begging this ethnic group to go forth and multiply—but they aren’t amused http://t.co/p6CdcL5quv via @qzindia

#JiyoParsi scheme should be carried out humbly. Its how parsis actually are. They are'nt racist! Look at those ads, humiliating!

People, stop crying over the #JiyoParsi scheme. The Parsis are a dying breed. Have a look at the Singapore baby Bonus Scheme.

Why this chair would have made a better symbol for the offensive #JiyoParsi ad campaign. http://t.co/3DvbShB3dn

I'm not a Parsi but the #JiyoParsi campaign offends me. Why not promote inter-community marriages instead of urging rabbit-like procreation?

Last word: #JiyoParsi Ads are as demented as their gene pool. Take it easy, you're only Parsis not Pandas!

Be Responsible, Don't use a condom tonight! #JiyoParsi Is this their Parsis desperation speaking or rather shouting?

— inder k'aul (@inderkaul) November 12, 2014

But something seems to be wrong with this scheme. It has started sounding like an interfering, nagging mother-in-law. #JiyoParsi
