News Desk: Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday alleged that the BJP is using ‘e-Ravanas’ to spread its propaganda and hatred on social media. He also said that he asked his party cadres to remain alert and keep an eye on such activities.
He said “Like the demon king Ravana, the BJP is using ‘e-Ravanas’ on social media to spread its propaganda and hatred. Like Ravana, they are there on social media in disguise and spread lies and rumours”
“Pseudo BJP leaders pose as SP supporters and post and forward indecent remarks on virtual platforms. I have asked my party cadres to remain alert and keep an eye on the activities of such dubious elements. Party workers have also been asked not to share, respond or forward anything objectionable on social media, and report the same to the party office” he added.
The SP chief also said “As the state polls are near, BJP men can do anything as they are experts in spreading lies to fool the people to grab power. Their objective is to divert the attention of people from core issues, including development”
“We have asked our workers to be disciplined, decent and practice restraint in the language they use on social media, which has emerged as a strong medium to communicate. Unfortunately, the BJP is misusing it” he added.
