New Delhi, Sept 11 (IBNS): A comment by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has triggered the trending of a hashtag- #BoycottMillennials.

Nirmala said the mindsets of millennial were adversely affecting the automobile industry.

She was quoted as saying by India Today in a press conference on Tuesday: "Some studies do tell us that mindset of millennials, who are now preferring not to commit an EMI (equated monthly installment) for buying an automobile, instead prefer to take Ola, Uber, everything else, or take the Metro."
