Ranchi: Jharkhand Congress’ official X account was on Wednesday withheld by the microblogging site in connection with a probe in the alleged Amit Shah doctored video case.
“@INCJharkhand has been withheld in IN in response to a legal demand,” X posted on Jharkhand Congress’ X page.
Jharkhand Congress chief Rajesh Thakur has been summoned by Delhi Police’s special cell at 10.30 am on May 2 with his mobile phone or any other electronic gadgets used in uploading/creating the said video.
Confirming receipt of the notice, Thakur said police should first verify the content on his X account.
“I received the notice from the Delhi Police on Tuesday. But, it is beyond my understanding why the notice was served to me. This is nothing but anarchy,” Thakur said.
“If there is any complaint, they should first verify the content on my X account. The election campaign is at its peak and my involvement in the campaign could be understood. In such a situation, they have sought my laptop and other electronic gadgets. Sending summons without verifying the things is not appropriate,” he added.
Delhi Police on Sunday registered an FIR after Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), which is under Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), filed a complaint about the doctored video of the Union Home Minister. The complaint stated that Shah’s statements indicating a commitment to abolish quota for Muslims on religious ground in Telangana were changed to make it seem that he was advocating scrapping of all reservations.
Jharkhand BJP also lodged a police complaint against two persons, alleging that they circulated the doctored video of Shah.
On Monday, Telangana chief minister Revanth Reddy was also summoned by Delhi Police in the doctored video case.
