India Blocks Global Times' X Account Over Chinese Propaganda
Government Cites National Security Concerns Amid Rising Tensions
After the Pahalgam attack, India had banned many government ex accounts of Pakistan and the accounts of actors and actresses there in India. Now India has tightened the screws on China and the ex account of Chinese propaganda outlet Global Times, which spreads propaganda in the country, was banned in India. 26 people were killed in the Pahalgam attack.
The central government on Wednesday banned China's government ex handle for spreading unconfirmed claims on the Indian Army.
This ban has been imposed at a time when a few days ago the Indian Embassy in China had strictly warned the media outlet to verify the facts before posting on social media.
The embassy said in a post on the ex, "Global TimesNews, we would advise you to verify your facts and check your sources before forwarding such misinformation.
