A message displayed on the Twitter handle said the account has been taken down “in response to a legal demand”.
As of now, users based in India are not able to access the account. The reason behind this action by Twitter is not yet clear, but it comes amid the manhunt for self-styled Sikh preacher and Khalistan ideologue Amritpal Singh.
Last week, the Twitter accounts of several Punjab-based journalists and prominent members of the Sikh community had been withheld in India following the police crackdown.
Punjab Police recently launched a massive crackdown in the northern state, arresting a number of supporters of Amritpal Singh, the chief of the radical outfit Waris De Punjab. Amritpal managed to evade the police net and is on the run.
