of muslims and accusations of eating beef or other hate crimes would not be reported, because our mainstream media is looking the other way. so, in a way, twitter has democratised that space for us to publish the unadulterated truth of what the government really wants, which is exactly why the government of the day wants to come heavily on social media and especially on platforms like twitter, because it is the only space left where some of us are expressing ourselves without fear of being censored. and if this is taken down, i don t know how many voices will be left. if the government is really concerned about communalisation and polarisation, it should start censoring its own spokespersons and ministers who are at the forefront of spreading fake news in india. and every day you see them spewing hate and venom and fake numbers, talking about, for instance, talking about how the muslim population of india will explode by 2050,
