"There is every reason for others to tell a lie because they can't accept this," said Kapil Sibal.
Former Union Minister and Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Tuesday supported the claim of former CEO of Twitter Jack Dorsey that there was 'pressure' from India to block accounts covering the farmers' protests and said there is no reason for Jack Dorsey to lie.
In an interview with the YouTube channel 'Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar', on Monday, Jack Dorsey who stepped down from Twitter's board last year, alleged that the Indian government had put pressure on Twitter and said that it will shut down the company in India and raid the houses of its employees.
"First of all, I would like to know, why would Jack Dorsey make such a statement. Rajeev Chandrasekhar says that this is a lie. Why would he tell a lie? There is no reason for Jack Dorsey to tell a lie that they threatened Twitter when the protests were going on, that they would shut their offices and raid the then Twitter employees," Kapil Sibal said.
"There is every reason for others to tell a lie because they can't accept this," he said.
