New Delhi: If you’re an avid social media user, you will need no introduction to how JCB memes have taken over the entire internet all of a sudden. The way netizens in India are going crazy over the “JCB” excavation equipment, has put many to wonder.


J.C. Bamford Excavators Limited, universally known as JCB, is a British multinational corporation, with headquarters in Rocester, Staffordshire, manufacturing equipment for construction, agriculture, waste handling and demolition.

The hashtag #JCBKiKhudayi started trending on Twitter on Monday evening. The trend changed to #JCBmemes this morning.

A series of hilarious memes claiming that Indians have an exclusive connect with the vehicle, started circulating on all social media platforms.

Here is how it began: A Twitter user posted a screenshot of the number of views on the videos of JCB exacavators and wrote: “JCB khudayi jokes are so subtle yet so funny. Apparently, the jokes are about how jobless are people to watch JCB digging videos on YouTube with these videos getting millions of views.” This tweet apparently triggered an explosion of memes and jokes around the JCB machines.
