Some background on Congress Toolkit

From Delhi Police’s statement, “Delhi police registered preliminary inquiry at the complaint filed by the representative of the Indian National Congress. Hence, efforts by Twitter that portray it as an FIR filed at the behest of the Government of India is wholly and completely incorrect.

Twitter declared that the toolkit was ‘Manipulated Media’, this clearly shows that it was acquainted with the facts of the case & had material information relevant to the probe. Hence, Twitter was asked to join the inquiry to provide the information it possesses”

    Major allegations made by India against Twitter

    • Wrong geo-location data of UT of Ladakh, at a time when India-China were engaged in a bilateral dialogue. Twitter took several days even after repeated reminders to take note of the blatant disrespect towards the India’s senstivity and territorial integrity.

    • Twitter’s biased stance when we compare its behaviour/actions against the perpetrators of violence at the Capitol Hill in USA and unlawful attack on Red Fort of Delhi. Twitter refused to take prompt actions, while aiding and amplifying the trends of fake propaganda of ‘genocide’ which made already tensed situation worse. Later it chose to comply but partially when already damage was done.

    • Twitter’s lack of responsbility has lead to agenda driven posts against India and Indians by the bad actors ( few intances like when pakistan backed accounts trended propaganda trying to create rift with ME countries, recent Israel-Palestine events from my side ), twitter’s lack of action lead to vaccine hesitancy and among all of these twitter has been inactive or totally passive.

    • Discriminatory behaviour against Indians and People of India when twitter didn’t comply and take action against the malicious tagging of B 1.617 mutant as ‘Indian variant’, despite WHO’s guidelines. Twitter has taken no action regarding fake narratives harming the People of India
