The farmers’ protests against the farm laws introduced by the Central Government have not gone down well with the majority of farmers of the country. As a result, many have been protesting against the laws ever since they were announced.
Twitter has been at the center of these protests for a little while now, with many tweets pouring in, which are more demeaning towards the Central Government, than supporting towards the farmers. The government had already warned those in question, to be more aware of their actions as severe repercussions would follow them if they kept on demeaning the CG.
The CG said that actions on lines of the social media policy would be taken against those responsible for spreading hatred. The CG even blocked as many as 100 accounts and 150 tweets that were downright outrageous and instilled a great deal of hatred.
Twitter unblocked these accounts and tweets though, without the permission of the Central Government. This greatly enraged the government, which has stated in retaliation to Twitter, that Twitter was just a medium for everyone, and that if this continues, legal actions would have to be taken against Twitter.
The protests against farm laws took a new turn on Republic day, when farmers from Punjab infiltrated the Red Fort, and unfurled a flag that is not the Indian flag.
