Facebook on Thursday banned an Indian politician belonging to the Bharatiya Janata Party from its platform for violating its policies covering violence and hate.
The company said it had banned politician Raja Singh from Facebook and Instagram under its “dangerous individuals and organizations” policy.
The Wall Street Journal reported the move earlier.
Earlier this month, India’s main opposition Congress party had sought for an investigation by the parliamentary panel on Sunday, claiming favourable treatment by Facebook’s India team towards the country’s ruling party.
