Modi Government Orders Blocking of Over 8,000 X Accounts Amid Global Backlash Over False Flag Operation
NEW DELHI:In the wake of growing international criticism and mounting pressure following the exposure of the Pahalgam false flag operation, the Modi-led Indian government has intensified its crackdown on dissent — this time targeting social media platform X (formerly Twitter). According to sources, the Indian government has issued an **executive order to block more than 8,000 X accounts**, including those belonging to journalists, activists, and international media outlets.
The move comes after a widespread backlash on social media platforms where users condemned India’s alleged attempts to stage-manage incidents for political gain. The Indian media, long accused of promoting hate-driven narratives and supporting the Modi government’s disinformation campaigns, has further deteriorated its credibility on the global stage.
**X administration responded strongly**, stating that the government orders lacked transparency, legal basis, or clear justification. “Most of the requests we received from Indian authorities **did not specify which laws were violated**, nor did they provide explanations for why particular accounts were being targeted,” the company said.
X further emphasized that the blocked accounts include those that actively **exposed misinformation and human rights violations**, calling the government’s actions a **grave attack on freedom of speech**. The platform has vowed to explore all legal options and has encouraged affected users to seek recourse through the courts.
Political analysts have condemned the Indian government’s actions, suggesting that the mass suspension of accounts is **an attempt to silence voices that are challenging official narratives** about the Indian military and government. They argue that this move **exposes the authoritarian tendencies** behind India’s so-called democratic image.
“The panic within the Modi administration is evident,” said one expert. “The decision to block accounts following the Pahalgam false flag operation’s exposure shows just how desperate the government is to suppress the truth.”
This incident raises serious concerns about **press freedom and digital rights in India**, further tarnishing the country’s global image as a democratic state.
