Environmental activist Greta Thunberg tweeted an anti-India plan toolkit in support of the farmers' agitation that has been going on for nearly two months in the country's capital Delhi against the new agricultural laws. Indian environmental activist Disha Ravi then asked the Swedish activist to delete the tweet for fear of action under the strict law UAPA as Disha was also named in that toolkit. In the toolkit case, police gave this information on Monday.
The Delhi Police claimed that Greta Thunberg allegedly deleted the tweet following a direct request. Later shared an edited version of the toolkit. Meanwhile, the police also claimed that the toolkit was edited by 22-year-old Disha.
Disha expressed her fear, said - action can be taken against us Police sources said Disha wrote to Thanberg on WhatsApp, "Well, is it possible that you don't tweet the toolkit completely? Can we stop for a while? I am going to talk to the lawyers. I am sorry, but we have their names on it and action can be taken against us under UAPA. ” The Delhi Police claimed that Disha had allegedly made the request under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for fear of a case being registered.
WhatsApp chat revealed A senior police official said the revelation came during an investigation into a WhatsApp chat between Thanberg and Disha Ravi. The chat revealed that Disha had requested Greta Thunberg to delete the tweet as the "Toolkit" document contained her name.
Responding to questions related to the toolkit document during a press conference at Delhi Police Headquarters, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Cyber Cell) Alisha Roy said, "This is not a static" document. It is a dynamic document, with a large number of hyperlinks, links to various Google Drive, Google Docs, and websites. One of which is AskIndiaHwai.com. This website has a lot of pro-Khalistani content. So this document is in itself an action plan. "
What is a toolkit case? Let us tell that Thanberg had shared an anti-India document (toolkit) while giving his support to the peasant movement. The document listed several plans to tarnish India's image, including creating a 'Twitter Storm' and staging protests outside the Indian embassies to support farmers' protests.
What is UAPA Law? Very strict provisions have been made under the UAPA with a view to curb illegal activities within and outside the country. In the year 2019, this law made in 1967, the government tightened it by making some amendments. This law applies throughout the country. Under this law, the accused in the case cannot get anticipatory bail and any Indian or foreigner can pursue a case under this law. No matter the location or tendency of crime. A case can be filed under this case in case of crime on foreign soil. This law is primarily to combat terrorism and Naxalism.
