The Caravan Seed After January 26 protests by farmers in Delhi, the government issued twitter an order to ban 500 accounts of journalists, politicians and activists including The Caravan magazine. The account upon logging in showed, “withheld in India in response to a legal demand”. After receiving backlash all over the world, Twitter reinstated several accounts that showed no evidence of wrongdoing. The Government of India then issued a non compliance notice to Twitter. The Kangana Snag Twitter banned Kangana Ranaut’s account following her video of hate speech tantamount to provocation of violence and asking for President’s Rule in West Bengal. Kangana had been advocating all of BJP’s policies and spatting over any criticism from celebrities, from Rihanna to Diljit Dosanjh.
The Sambit Patra Straw Sambit Patra, BJP’s chief spokesperson tweeted with an alleged fake toolkit framing Saumya Verma in her track to be charged under sedition for conspiring against Prime Minister Narendar Modi which was fact checked by Alt News and others, proving it to be fake. In a desperate attempt to divert attention from the pandemic and the government’s shortcomings, the spokesperson got a manipulated media tag for his post. The government asked Twitter to remove the tag in order to save face citing ‘Such a tag by Twitter appears to be pre-judged, prejudiced and a deliberate attempt to colour the investigation by local law enforcement agency’. After this, the government raided Twitter offices as a show of force under the pretence to issue a notice. Twitter’s Response Twitter removed the blue verification ticks from accounts of various members of RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh). On response, said Twitter removes the verification tick from accounts that have been inactive.
