Red flag tweets of 11 ministers: Congress to Twitter

NEW DELHI: After Twitter tagged as “manipulated” the “forged toolkit” unveiled by BJP, Congress on Tuesday wrote to the micro-blogging site to red flag the tweets of 11 Union ministers and argued that the same objectionable and misleading content had been posted.
The ministers mentioned are Giriraj Singh, Piyush Goyal, Smriti Irani, Ravi Shankar Prasad, Prahlad Joshi, Dharmendra Pradhan, Ramesh Pokhriyal, Thawarchand Gehlot, Harsh Vardhan, Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi and Gajendra Singh Shekhawat.
Congress said the content was the same as was posted by BJP spokesman Sambit Patra which was then tagged as “manipulated media” and said Patra was the main person named in an FIR. Party spokesman Randeep Surjewala wrote to Twitter following which the social media giant asked the opposition party to send the URL links of the said tweets.
