NEW DELHI: Facebook and Instagram
accounts being used by the farmers protesting the government's new agricultural laws were
blocked on Sunday following a live broadcast, the demonstrators alleged, renewing the debate
about online censorship.
Managers of Kisan Ekta Morcha — one the biggest pages being used for the movement with over 7 lakh followers — said their access was blocked by Facebook which said it had gone against its community standards on spam. (Agencies)
