Hello @elonmusk @XEng, You had promised to remove all the bot accounts from @X. But there are millions of Bot accounts still following PM Modi. Here are a few bot accounts created in 2013 or because only and only to follow PM Modi and nothing else. I am sure there are millions of such accounts.
This 2024 election gave hope to many that a strong opposition would speak up to protect democracy and the dignity of marginalised communities.
Long Thread 🧵
People supporting the opposition believed that the opposition would speak for them. Muslims who voted for your parties were hopeful that the results would stop the wave of Islamophobia.
Dalit and Adivasis who supported you, wanted you to speak for their rights.
Secular Hindus who supported you, campaigned for you on and offline during the 2024 election did that for a stronger democracy and against the ideology of the RSS and BJP.
Let's debunk the propaganda by @smitaprakash's Agency & @ians_india who claimed "Delhi Women staged a protest demanding payment of Rs 1000 promised by the AAP govt."
These BJP woman who organised this protest were later seen celebrating at McDonald's.
The Woman recording the protest is Pooja Maini Chadha. She can be seen going in a bus to the protesting site. Here @smitaprakash hides Pooja's BJP association because she wants to mislead her viewers to think the protesters are not associated with the BJP.
The Woman in the protest is Krishna Sharma. In the Video shared by Smita Prakash's agency, Here, BJP leader Krishna Sharma can be seen pushing the police barricade and protest demanding Rs. 1K from AAP govt. Wonder why @smitaprakash hid this from her viewers.
Do read this important thread 🧵
As India voted in the months-long 7-phase election, @AltNews worked relentlessly to expose/document/report on political disinformation and hate speech used in poll campaign, and the election commission's failure to act on them.
On April 21, PM Narendra Modi delivered a speech in Rajasthan's Banswara and summarily addressed Muslims as 'infiltrators' and 'those who produced more children'. Alt News reported how Modi's speech was a textbook example of hate speech |
In a detailed fact check, we also showed how PM Modi led the BJP's disinformation campaign against the Congress manifesto. Calling it the manifesto of the Muslim League, he set off a series of false claims that would be repeated by BJP leaders |
In Purnia, Bihar, A newly married girl Vandana Kumari was strangled to death and her body was hung in her house by her ex-boyfriend Shelendra Kumar. He later confessed to his crime after arrest.
You'll hardly see any News Agencies or Channels covering this because there is no Hindu-Muslim angle to this. Neither did this happen in States ruled by opposition. livehindustan.com/bihar/purnia/s…
A 30-year-old woman Praviya was stabbed with a knife and later burnt to death by her Ex-boyfriend on the Kodumunda coastal road near Pattambi. Her wedding was scheduled for April 29. According to reports, The accused Santhosh, a native of Aloor died by suicide after the attack.
The Pro Govt Propaganda News Agency @ANI or National Media isn't interested in reporting this incident because there is no Hindu-Muslim angle to this.
In Kanpur. A husband stabbed his wife Gunjan Goutam repeatedly and killed her, after killing his wife, Shiva Gupta locked the room and fled to his native village Raebareli.
This incident happened two days back. Did you see any news reports by @smitaprakash's News Agency @ANI or any National News Channels or tweets by News Anchors or outrage by RW? No. Because this incident happened in the BJP ruled state UP and there is no Hindu-Muslim angle to this.
