NDTV
Anurag Thakur was responding to claims of former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey that the Indian government had pressurised Twitter to block accounts covering the farmers' protests.
Union Sports Minister Anurag Thakur on Tuesday dismissed the claims of former Twitter CEO and founder Jack Dorsey that the Indian government had pressurised Twitter to block accounts covering the farmers' protests.
Slamming Dorsey's claim as a "blatant lie", Mr Thakur said "several foreign forces wake up when elections approach India."
Charging Dorsey on the allegations raised in 'Twitter Files', Mr Thakur said, "What was said, is a blatant lie. Jack Dorsey woke up after years of sleep and wants to cover up his misdeeds. When Twitter was bought by another person, it was revealed in 'Twitter Files' how was the platform being misused. Jack Dorsey has not been able to answer this to date because he was exposed."
Twitter Files is a series of tweets brought to light by Elon Musk when he took over as the Twitter boss to expose the misdeeds carried out on the popular microblogging site under Jack Dorsey's regime.
