BJP removes Haryana IT cell chief Arun Yadav over controversial tweets

India Blooms News Service | @indiablooms | 08 Jul 2022, 12:21 am

Chandigarh/IBNS: Information Technology chief of Bharatiya Janta Party's Haryana unit, Arun Yadav, was removed by the party on Thursday, amid growing calls for arrest over his controversial tweets against Muslims.

Yadav has found himself in the middle of a controversy for his social media posts, widely shared by his detractors.

Many compared his impunity with the treatment of Mohammed Zubair, co-founder of fact-checking website Alt News, who has been arrested over a 2018 tweet.

#ArrestArunYadav was among the top trends on Twitter on Thursday, with his tweets posted between May this year and 2017 shared thousands of times.
