A Delhi-based lawyer has filed a police complaint against Twitter India and its chief Manish Maheshwari and sought registration of an FIR for allegedly outraging religious feelings of Hindus.
The complaint filed by Aditya Singh Deshwal states that a Twitter user has been repeatedly posting "highly objectionable graphic cartoon of Hindu goddess Maa Kali".
Deshwal has stated that other content tweeted shows that it is a "deliberate hurt the religious sentiments of the Hindus in order to promote religious animosity amongst the people".
Accusing Twitter of allowing such content on its platform, Deshwal said the social media giant has not taken steps to remove them.
