Kerala Assembly polls | Candidates face online attacks
The Hindu
As the Assembly election nears, reports have emerged of aggressive online campaigning on social media against a number of candidates. Apart from the already existing fake profiles, many fresh profiles on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter have been created to spearhead the campaign.
The accounts are also getting the support of political workers and social media campaigners of various political parties. One of the targets of the trolls is the mother of Walayar victims, who has declared her candidacy against Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan in Dharmadam. Though the fake profiles resemble those of Communist Party of India (Marxist) workers, there have been no efforts yet to trace the owners of the accounts. The users are allegedly bullying her into withdrawing her candidacy.More Related News
