How is that a threat to India's sovereignty or security?
Modi is infamous for having caused, by his actions or inactions, the Gujarat riots that killed 2000+ people. Hell, he was even banned from entering the US, till he became the Indian PM. There is blood on his hands and lots of it.
And to give some context on this hash tag, I believe it came after the gov't put across barricades and barbed wires to caroll the protesters leading many to believe that the regime was planning a major crackdown. The situation in the first week of Feb was very tense.

Didn't the US also place barricades for Biden's inauguration?
I'm noticing a pattern here:
People, who deem it "good" that the US places barricades to corral protesters of the biden inauguration, are the same people inclined to deem it "bad" that India places barricades to corral protesters of the farm bills.
Similarly, people who deem it "good" that Twitter deplatforms #StopTheSteal are inclined to deem it "bad" that Twitter deplatforms #ModiPlanningFarmerGenocide
Claiming that the Prime minster is genociding farmers in a country of more than 100 million farmers certainly sounds worrisome. India's sovereignty is in good hands so I am not worried about that. But the same cannot be said for internal security. Government treating the protestors unfairly is no justification for spreading news that is clearly fake. To add more context, fake news has led to riots, murders and even incidents of mob lynching in the country.
> Modi is infamous for having caused, by his actions or inactions, the Gujarat riots that killed 2000+ people.
An accusation for which he was acquitted by the Supreme Court of India.
And Modi's actions/inactions pale in comparison to those of the Congress Party, who actually committed genocide against the Sikhs in 1984, which resulted in up to 17,000 Sikhs getting murdered by Congress goons, for which noone has been held accountable.
> The situation in the first week of Feb was very tense.
Wasn't it partly due to the genocide misinformation? One protestor died in a tractor accident and Twitter did little to curb the misinformation that he was shot by police.
