Complaint filed against Twitter India MD Manish Maheshwari for ‘spreading communal hatred’ against Hindus.

The advocate who filed the complaint said that Twitter through its platform has been deliberately promoting hate speech about the Hindu religion.

Singdha Phogat | HENB | New Delhi | July 4, 2021:: A serious complaint has been filed before Delhi Police Cyber Cell against Twitter India’s Managing Director, Manish Maheshwari and a non-profit organisation for allegedly spreading communal hatred against majority Hindus in India.

Addressing to DCP Cyber Cell of the Delhi Police, advocate Aditya Singh Deshwal filed the complaint  and sought immediate registration of an FIR against Twitter Communications India Private Ltd, Manish Maheshwari, MD, Twitter India, Shagufta Kamran, Public Policy manager of Twitter India as well as Armin Navabi and Susanna Macintrye, the founder and CEO respectively of Republic Atheist.

The aggrieved advocate cited a picture of Goddess Kali shared by the handle Atheist Republic and of Armin Navabi and said that content posted by the Twitter users was not only abusive but has been posted for the purpose of causing annoyance, inconvenience, danger, obstruction, insult, injury, criminal intimidation, enmity, hatred and ill will in very tolerant society in India.

“It would also be not out of place to mention here that these posts have been put by the said user deliberately, to outrage the religious feelings of Hindus to insult our religious beliefs,” the advocate Aditya Singh Deshwal said.

In his complaint, the advocate said, “Twitter which is a microblogging website/platform in connivance with Armin Navab and Atheist Republic has been showing this blasphemous content from July 2011 and earlier. The user profile of Atheist Republic is full of such blasphemous content about Hindu Religion and other religions.

As a matter of fact, Nationalist Indians and Hindutva activists both are showing their resentment against Twitter India for their double standard as being sided with Muslim Twitter users and putting scourge against many Hindu activists had their Twitter handles earlier.

Reputed Hindu interlocutor and Hindu Existence Web Editor, Upananda Barhmachari opined, “Double standard Twitter has its definite collaboration with Islamists. So if Muslims attack Hindus and Hindusim- it’s not a matter. But, Twitter definitely intolerant about your stand against radical Islam and Jihad!!”

Using the Twitter handle @HinduExistence , Upananda Brahmachari expressed his points as, “Activities prove that @TwitterIndia is pro-Muslim, sympathizers of Islamists & obviously anti Hindu. So @ArminNavabi, @Shehla_Rashid are live in @Twitter, but @upananda @KanganaTeam @Payal_Rohatgi & @singerabhijeet are suspended! #BanTwitterInIndia Attn: @narendramodi @rsprasad”.

Earlier, Brahmachari demanded arrest of Twitter India Chief Manish Maheshwari and a symbolic ban on Twitter India for a month.
