NDTV
Leaders whose handles were blocked include Randeep Surjewala, Ajay Maken, KC Venugopal and Pawan Khera. Besides, Congress handles from several cities, states and Union Territories have been blocked
Congress's Priyanka Gandhi Vadra today questioned Twitter over the blocking of a large number of party handles and the accounts of 23 leaders of the party. The Congress has claimed the handles of 5000 of its workers and leaders have been locked. Is Twitter following its own policy for the suspension of Congress leaders' accounts or the Modi government's?Why hadn't it locked the account of SC commission that had tweeted similar photos before any of our leaders did? 1/2 By locking Congress leaders' accounts en masse, Twitter is blatantly colluding with the stifling of democracy by the BJP government in India. 2/2 Besides Rahul Gandhi -- whose account was blocked after he shared photographs of the family of the nine-year-old allegedly raped and killed last week -- the other leaders whose handles were blocked include Randeep Surjewala, Ajay Maken, KC Venugopal and Pawan Khera. Many of them had retweeted Mr Gandhi's post. Besides, party handles from several cities, states and Union Territories --. Mumbai Regional Congress Committee, Maharashtra Congress Committee, Gujarat Congress Committee, Rajasthan Congress Committee, Daman & Diu Congress Committee and the Tamil Nadu Congress Committee -- have been blocked.More Related News
