BJP leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa has filed a police complaint against Alt News cofounder Mohammed Zubair, accusing him of working with “Pak agencies” to set a “Khalistani” narrative against cricketer Arshdeep Singh.
The Arshdeep controversy took place after he dropped a catch in the penultimate over of an India-Pakistan match. Things took an ugly turn on social media with multiple posts accusing him of being “anti-national” and “Khalistani”; his Wikipedia page was also vandalised.
