Mr. Tharoor has asked for clarification from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) on Twitter’s ‘manipulated media” tag. Mr. Tharoor, in a long thread on Twitter, clarified that since the committee was not meeting, it communicated with the ministries in writing and the communication was shared with the members. This is not the first instance that Mr. Dubey has demanded the removal of Mr. Tharoor. It is therefore well within the Cmt’s mandate to seek a clarification on this matter from the Ministry concerned,” Mr. Tharoor said. Without naming Mr Dubey, he stated, concerns should be addressed within the committee.
