Jack Dorsey, Block founder and former Twitter CEO, has said in an interview which has gone viral that Twitter got a lot of requests from the Indian government to act against accounts covering the 2020-21 farmers’ protests. Dorsey claimed that the Indian government also urged Twitter to take action against those journalists who were critical of the government at the time.

The former Twitter CEO said in an interview to the YouTube channel Breaking Points: “India is a country that had many requests of us around the farmers’ protest, around particular journalists that were critical of the government and it manifested in ways such as ‘we will shut Twitter down in India’, which is a very large market for us. ‘We will raid the homes of your employees’, which they did; ‘we will shut down your offices if you don’t follow suit’. And this is India, a democratic country”.
