Iam Not On Facebook, How Can I Be Banned, Asks BJP MLA Raja Singh
Banned by Facebook on Thursday over hateful content and labelled a "dangerous individual", controversial Telangana BJP MLA T Raja Singh claimed it had been more than a year since he left the social networking website and asked whether the company was working under Congress "pressure". Defending Facebook as "a neutral platform", Mr Singh said linking it with BJP is not fair. He said he will write to Facebook to open a new account for him and promised to follow all rules.
"I will write to Facebook to open my official account. I will follow all rules and regulations to use it. I should be given the right to use Facebook account and I will seek their permission," said the BJP leader known for incendiary speeches that usually target Muslims.
Under fire for weeks over its handling of hate speech by those linked to the ruling party, Facebook on Thursday said it has banned Raja Singh from its platform and Instagram for violating its policy on content promoting violence and hate.
