The MEA declaration argued that the “costumed interest groups” were attempting to enact their protest agenda in order to derail them.
Greta Thunberg, a Swedish environmental activist, is in the midst of a fight about her tweets about the farmers’ protest in India.
Her tweets also contained a toolkit (a document) that spoke of widespread protests around the world over the issue. When Twitter exploded, access to the document was limited, and the article was deleted.
Information about the January 26 protests as well as other street protests was given in the document in Thunberg’s tweet.
Via social media, the screenshots of the documents were broadly shared. The buzz would be around the possibility that at the international level, there is a plot to defame India about the protest of the farmers.
Thunberg published an update later, saying that because it was old, the document was deleted. She also posted an updated toolkit connect.
As pop star Rihanna Tweeted:
International pop star Rihanna, who published a CNN article on internet suspension around sites where farmers were protesting, is another celebrity who tweeted regarding the issue. “Why don’t we think about this?!” she tweeted, including the #FarmersProtest hashtag.
Sachin Tendulkar in his tweet:
This resulted in a barrage of tweets from several other celebrities, such as former Indian cricket captain Sachin Tendulkar, who claimed that the sovereignty of India cannot be undermined and that foreign powers cannot participate.
“India’s sovereignty can be compromised. External influences can be spectators, but it’s not participants. Indians know India & would decide for India. Let’s stand united as a country,” Tendulkar tweeted, including hashtags #IndiaTogether as well as #IndiaAgainstPropaganda, made famous after the government’s statement on the problem.
A statement by MEA:
A statement by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) claimed that “neither accurate nor accountable” were criticisms by foreign celebrities and attempts to “mobilize international support against India” on the government’s handling of farmers’ protests without establishing evidence.
The MEA declaration argued that the “costumed interest groups” were attempting to enact their protest agenda in order to derail them, and had been trying to mobilize international support towards India.
The assertion in this sense applied to “sensationalist hashtags and comments on social media” by “celebrities as well as others but did not mention anyone. All the ministers posted the declaration with #IndiaTogether and #IndiaAgainstPropaganda, making it a social media campaign.
