Twitter takes down director Leena Manimekalais Kaali poster tweet #IndiaNEWS #News
New Delhi: Microblogging site Twitter has removed the controversial July 2 tweet of filmmaker Leena Manimekalai.
Leena had released the poster of the film Kaali via a tweet which led to outrage in the country. The poster of her film depicted a woman dressed in a costume portraying the goddess and smoking.
Reacting to Twitters action, Leena in a tweet asked whether the social media platform would also withhold posts by hate mongers.
This is hilarous. Will @TwitterIndia withhold the tweets of the 200000 hate mongers?! These lowlife trolls tweeted and spread the very same poster that they find objectionable. Kaali cannot be lynched. Kaali cannot be raped. Kaali cannot be destroyed. She is the goddess of death, she wrote.
However, its not clear when Twitter actually took the tweet down.
The original tweet has been replaced by a message from Twitter.
This Tweet from @LeenaManimekali has been withheld in India in response to a legal demand, read the message.
Meanwhile, Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has been booked for allegedly hurting religious sentiments after her comment on Goddess Kali stirred a controversy. An FIR has been registered in Bhopal against Moitra under section 295A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for hurting religious sentiments.
