Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged that BJP and RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) control Facebook and WhatsApp in India. Rahul Gandhi said on Sunday, 'BJP-RSS controls Facebook and WhatsApp in India. Through this, they lure voters by spreading false news and hate. After all, the American media has revealed the truth of Facebook. '

BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra has responded to this allegation by Rahul Gandhi. The BJP leader has described Rahul as a failed leader. Sambit Patra hit back at Rahul, saying, "Rahul Gandhi is an unsuccessful leader and naturally he seems to be annoyed and angry. Rahul Gandhi is unable to control the Congress itself, the Congress party is going out of control and Rahul Gandhi is doing it.

BJP leader and Communications, Electronics and Information Technology Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad retaliated. Ravi Shankar Prasad said, 'The fact is that today there is freedom of information and expression. It is no longer controlled by your family and that is why you feel sad. Well, you did not condemn Bengaluru's violence. Where did your courage go?

Congress counterattack

The Congress retaliated on Ravi Shankar Prasad's tweet. Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala said, 'It seems that false tweets and false agendas have become the only way. Congress never took the services of Cambridge Analytica. ' Surjewala claimed that the BJP had been a client of Cambridge Analytica. Why does the Law Minister not say this?

Not only is the political war going on in Congress-BJP in India, but the leaders of political parties have also questioned the credibility of Facebook. Congress leader Digvijay Singh said in his tweet, 'Mark Zuckerberg please talk on this. Ankhi Das, a supporter of Prime Minister Modi, was posted on Facebook, who happily approves anti-Muslim posts on social media. You have proved that you do not follow what you preach. '

AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi raised questions on Facebook. He tweeted. 'Why does Facebook have different standards in different democracies? What kind of fair platform is this? This report is detrimental to the BJP - BJP's relationship with Facebook has been exposed and the nature of BJP's control over Facebook employees has also come to light. '

Facebook cleaning

Amid questions arising in India, Facebook said on Sunday, 'We ban hate speech and content that incites violence. We implement this policy globally. We do not see anyone's political situation or whichever party the leader is related to.

A Facebook spokesperson further said, 'We know that more work needs to be done in this area (preventing hate speech and inflammatory content). We are moving forward. We regularly audit our process to ensure fairness and accuracy. '

At the same time, on Monday, a Facebook spokesperson said that our policies are the same all over the world. We ban hate speech and content without any political status/party affiliation. We are constantly working for fairness and accuracy. Regular audits are done for this. A Facebook spokesperson said, 'We prohibit hate speech and content that incites violence. We implement these policies all over the world without seeing what political status someone has or which party he is associated with. We are making the rules more streamlined to ensure fairness and accuracy. '

What is in the report, which caused controversy

The report published in the US newspaper Wall Street General from the headline 'Facebook Hate-Speech Rules Collide with Indian Politics' has raised controversy. The report claimed that Facebook relaxes rules and regulations in the case of the inflammatory language of ruling BJP leaders in India. Facebook employees said that many people in India spread hatred on social media platforms. Employees say that posting hate in the virtual world increases violence and tension in the real world.

It refers to a post by BJP MP from Telangana T Raja Singh. The post advocates violence against Muslims. The report has been written by talking to Facebook employees. Facebook employees say that they had opposed T Raja Singh's post and considered it against the company's rules, but no action was taken by the company's executives at the top level in India.

Let me tell you that this is not the first case when questions have been raised about Facebook. The US newspaper Washington Post reported in a report with five of those points that Facebook's networks and data were used to promote Donald Trump's election campaign.

Targeting the central government over the China border dispute

Let me tell you that before this, Rahul had targeted the central government over the China border dispute. Rahul had said that everyone has faith in the Indian Army except the Prime Minister. He had said, everyone believes in the capability and valor of the Indian Army, except PM, whose cowardice allowed China to take our land. Whose lies will ensure that they will keep it? '

On Friday, Rahul had said that the government was afraid of facing Chinese intentions in the Ladakh case. The evidence on the ground indicates that China is preparing itself and strengthening its position.
