Pakistan Defence Minister's 'X' account withheld in India
The X account of Pakistan Defence Minister Khwaja Asif has been suspended in India.
The suspension followed a formal demand by the Indian government, X said on its update. The account was suspended in the wake of disinformation and fake news being spread through Asif's official handle and in the wake of Asif's confession on camera that Pakistan has been backing terror groups at the behest of the West.
X accounts of some Pakistani journalists learnt to be working for the ISI have also been suspended.
Earlier on Monday, India announced a ban on 16 Pakistani YouTube channels for spreading provocative and communally sensitive content and misinformation against India, its Army and security agencies in the backdrop of the Pahalgam terror incident.
Last week, the Pakistani Defence Minister made a huge admission by stating that Pakistan has been funding and backing terror groups in a viral video clip.
