Arshdeep Singh's Wikipedia page : In a shameful turn of events, Indian cricketer Arshdeep Singh’s Wikipedia page entry was changed to reflect Khalistan association on Monday.

As a result, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has summoned Wikipedia executives in India to seek an explanation on how that happened. 

'It is a serious issue. The edits have been traced back to servers in neighbouring countries and can cause serious damage to the internal peace and national safety of India,' a government official told the Economic Times.

Arshdeep Singh has brutally trolled on social media after he dropped an easy catch in the Asia Cup game vs Pakistan, which many believe cost India the Super 4 game.
