Internet users joked that Himachal Pradesh CM Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has a personal “SID (Samosa Investigation Department)” at his disposal to look into his missing evening snack
The “samosa mix-up” in Himachal Pradesh has got the internet laughing out loud. And after the CID in the Congress-ruled state responded to the controversy on Friday, social media has been snacking on some fine memes.
While the BJP called the state government a “laughing stock”, internet users joked that Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has a personal “SID (Samosa Investigation Department)” at his disposal to look into his missing evening snack.
The BJP’s Himachal Pradesh unit, it seems, may have either triggered or borrowed the idea from the internet; but, it posted a meme on its official Instagram account saying (translated from Hindi): “Do you know? A new department has opened in Sukhu ji’s system change…” (sic)
The meme is about how Israel and India have intelligence agencies like Mossad and R&AW while Sukhu has the “Samosa Investigation Department”. Even state BJP MP Anurag Thakur joined the fun, and posted a picture of a samosa on X, asking: “Why is samosa trending today?”

Another internet user posted a meme paying homage to the popular television series CID portraying Sukhu as the beloved ‘ACP Pradyuman’ character, flanked by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge as ‘Daya’ and senior MP Rahul Gandhi as ‘Abhijeet’.
