New Delhi: Hours after a now-deleted tweet on the Nuh violence in Haryana, actor Govinda has clarified that his Twitter account has been hacked. His tweet went viral on the internet and subsequently sparked a controversy. Sharing a video on his official Instagram account, Govinda said, “I would like to say that my Twitter account has been hacked so please do not attribute the Haryana tweet to me. I have not posted it.”
However, screenshots of the now-deleted tweet have been going viral across social media platforms. “What have we come down to? Shame on the people who call themselves Hindus and do such things. Aman aur shanti banaye. Hum democracy hai, autocracy nahi,” the now-deleted tweet read.
In the video, shared on his Instagram account, Govinda said, “All the people of Haryana who are my friends and fans, I want to say that my Twitter account has been hacked by someone. I haven’t even been using Twitter for many years. My team has confirmed that they have not tweeted anything. They don’t even post anything without asking me. I will complain about this matter in cybercrime.”
A mob tried to stop a Vishva Hindu Parishad procession, pelting stones and setting cars on fire on Monday. This led to the death of two home guards and at least 15 others, including several policemen, were injured.
