New Delhi: After Tesla owner, Elon Musk took over Twitter, many leaders of the country and the world are congratulating him for it. Meanwhile, Congress Lok Sabha MP Rahul Gandhi has also congratulated Musk on Twitter's takeover. Rahul had earlier accused Twitter of "stopping free and fair speech" in India. Now Rahul congratulated him and wrote, ''I hope Twitter will now work against hate speech. There will be strong fact checks."
Congrats @elonmusk.

I hope @Twitter will now act against hate speech, fact check more robustly, and will no longer stifle the opposition’s voice in India due to government pressure. pic.twitter.com/j2unZeYYj6
In his tweet, Rahul attacked the central government and accused Twitter, 'Hope that now the voice of the opposition will not be suppressed under the pressure of the government on Twitter.' He has described this graph as 'manipulation'. The graph shows that Rahul Gandhi's follower count did not increase. At the same time, the option of 'New Followers' was also 'suppressed'. Rahul had made 20 appeals to Twitter, but Twitter had rejected all the cases outright and said that nothing wrong had happened. On August 8, 2021, Rahul Gandhi's Twitter handle was 'temporarily' suspended.
Earlier on Friday (October 28), billionaire businessman Elon Musk gave a message of 'Openly Live' in his tweet after becoming the new owner of the social media platform Twitter. Musk, the world's richest man, has acquired Twitter for USD 44 billion. As soon as he completed this deal, he fired Twitter's Indian-origin Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Parag Agarwal and top legal affairs officer Vijaya Gadde.
