Kejriwal Alleges Meta Restricted His Account in India

The Story in Brief

AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal alleged on Thursday that Meta had restricted his social media account in India and made it unavailable to users. In a post on X, the former Delhi chief minister said verbal enquiries at Meta’s India office produced no explanation or guidance on removing the restriction.

Kejriwal also claimed that emails to the company received only routine acknowledgements. He accused Meta of political pressure and told it not to “bow down” to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Times Now reports that Meta had not immediately responded to the allegations or publicly commented on the claimed restriction.

The Indian Opinion

Kejriwal’s charge should not be treated as proof of political censorship, just as Meta’s silence should not be treated as proof that nothing happened. The immediate issue is basic platform accountability: what restriction was applied, under which rule, and for how long? Meta’s response, along with evidence that the account was unavailable in India, will settle whether this was moderation, a technical fault or political pressure.
