New Delhi: Micro-blogging site Twitter on Thursday suspended Kangana Ranaut’s sister and manager Rangoli Chandel’s account over a controversial tweet regarding the Moradabad stone-pelting incident.
In the tweet, Chandel wrote of shooting people dead while referring to the incident wherein a medical team screening coronavirus suspects in Moradabad was attacked by some people.
Chandel used the term “Nazi” in her tweet which was found to be objectionable by many of the users on the medium.
Twitter suspended Chandel’s account as she was found violating its set of rules
According to the policy of the micro-blogging site, tweets that propagate or incite violence, hatred, terrorism, abuse or harassment are subjected to be reported following which Twitter account of the user gets suspended.
Thank you @Twitter @TwitterIndia @jack for suspending this account. I reported this because she targeted a specific community and called for them to be shot along with liberal media and compared herself to the Nazis. ??? . pic.twitter.com/lJ3u6btyOm
