Indian Police Raid Twitter For Flagging BJP Post As "Manipulated Media"

On May 24th, the central government-supervised Delhi Police Special Cell raided Twitter India's Delhi and Gurgaon offices concerning the social media outlet tagging BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra's tweet on "congress toolkit" as "manipulated media." In January 2021, the Indian government sent notices to Twitter to take down several posts and footage related to the Farmers' Protest. The IT Ministry flagged these posts for allegedly "spreading misinformation" and having the potential to "lead to imminent violence affecting public order in the country." Following Twitter India's refusal to do so, the IT Ministry threatened to jail every employee in Twitter India's office, forcing them to back down and comply. Activists, politicians, and the general populace have condemned Delhi Police's actions and expressed concerns about the right to freedom of speech being vulnerable in within the country.
