<p>A single social media post has triggered a row between the top brass of the BJP and opposition Congress and TMC.</p>
<p>Kolkata-based lawyer and RSS member Santanu Sinha allegedly suggested that BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya was involved in sexual exploitation of women.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Is Amit Malviya still waiting at a 5-star hotel in Kolkata to procure a beautiful woman or have the leaders of West Bengal BJP stopped the competition of who has more beautiful women to secure the State President post?&rdquo; he had posted in Bengali.</p>
<p>The charge that was quickly amplified by the Congress. In an all-out political attack, the grand old party said Malviya should be sacked from his post in the BJP and be subject to an independent inquiry.</p>
<p>An enraged Malviya sent a legal notice to Sinha for "false and defamatory allegations" and demanded a retraction of the statement along with a public apology. He also sought damages worth Rs 10 crore for mental harassment, agony and loss of reputation.</p>
<p>Sinha on his part refused to take down the social media post and denied an apology. But in doing so, he hit out at the Congress, not Malviya.</p>
<p>Sinha claims his post was misinterpreted to create a hate campaign against Malviya. He said the post was not intended to malign the BJP leader's reputation but to caution him against a 'honeytrap'. Sinha did express his 'heartfelt sorrow' for any hurt caused to Malviya.</p>
<p>But Malviya refused to back down. He threatened to file a criminal defamation case against Sinha for making 'slanderous' comments against him. The BJP leader said Sinha's "purported apology is deeply problematic and reductionist".</p>
<p>He added that Sinha's clarification statement was qualified and not unequivocal and does not meet the demands listed in the legal notice.</p>

Case against Amit Malviya for 'genocide' tweet on Udhayanidhi Stalin's 'sanatan' remark

<p>Malviya had tweeted that the DMK leader had called for the 'genocide' of 80% of India's population by saying 'sanatan dharma' should be eradicated</p>

<p>An FIR has been registered against Amit Malviya, in-charge of BJP's IT department, for distorting Tamil Nadu Youth Welfare Minister Udhaynidhi Stalin's remark on Sanatan Dharma, police said on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Days after Malviya posted on X that the DMK leader had called for "genocide" of 80 per cent population who follow Sanatan Dharma, Tiruchirappalli police said a case has been registered under IPC sections for deliberately misrepresenting Udhayanidhi's remark to cause disharmony and create enmity among different sections of people.</p>
<p>The FIR was registered following a complaint, they said and did not elaborate.</p>
<p>On September 2, DMK leader and state minister Udhayanidhi, who also holds the sports portfolio alleged that Sanatan Dharma is against social justice and equality and it should hence be "eradicated."</p>

BJP leader Amit Malviya claimed that Jitendra Singh, a former Union minister, had gone down on his knees to tie Rahul Gandhi's shoe laces.

Why Congress tweeted pic of Rahul Gandhi's shoe after BJP claim of 'ex-minister tied his laces' claim

<p>BJP leader Amit Malviya claimed that Jitendra Singh, a former Union minister, had gone down on his knees to tie Rahul Gandhi's shoe laces.</p>

<p>A fresh controversy has erupted over Rahul Gandhi's ongoing Bharat Jodo Yatra.</p>
<p>BJP leader Amit Malviya tweeted a video clip of the march on 21 December 2022, claiming that Jitendra Singh, a former Union minister, had gone down on his knees to tie Rahul Gandhi's shoe laces. Malviya called Gandhi an "arrogant, entitled brat".</p>
<p>The Congress responded by tweeting photographs which showed that Jitendra Singh's shoe laces were untied, and not Rahul Gandhi's.</p>
<p>Congress leader Supriya Shrinate also tweeted a photograph of a shoe, claiming that it was Rahul Gandhi's and that it does not have laces which need to be tied.</p>

<p>Congress leader Jitendra Singh attacked Malviya, accusing him of spreading defamatory lies. He said that he was tying his own shoe laces, and the BJP leader must delete his tweet and apologise to Rahul Gandhi, or face legal action.</p>

Twitter has put the 'manipulated media' label and disclaimer on a tweet shared by BJP&rsquo;s IT cell head Amit Malviya. He reportedly tweeted a &ldquo;clipped video&rdquo; from the farmer&rsquo;s protest, which showed the policeman&rsquo;s baton not touching the elderly farmer.
This could be the first time the microblogging platform has flagged an Indian political account following the &lsquo;misinformation&rsquo; or &lsquo;disputed claims&rsquo; tag during the US elections. In February 2020, Twitter had announced its rules on synthetic and manipulated media.
