Sona Mohapatra faces backlash for opposing Twitter ban on Rangoli Chandel; Read tweets

Singer Sona Mohapatra was massively trolled for siding with Rangoli Chandel and opposing her Twitter suspension. Mohapatra in a series of tweets explained that suspending Rangoli's account wasn't the right move by Twitter, stressing that it 'only invites more such hate'.

Sona said that she doesn't believe in 'cancel culture' after Rangoli's account was suspended by Twitter for spreading fake news and sharing communal tweets. A user accused Sona of being a 'feminist who never made sense', while another said that Sona was promoting genocide by opposing her Twitter suspension.

To this, Sona replied saying they are free to unfollow her and wrote, "I never aspired to live up to all your expectations or fandom."

Rangoli’s Twitter account was suspended on Thursday after her tweet asking for the killing of a community and a section of the media in the aftermath of the Moradabad attack, was reported by celebrities like Reema Kagti, Farah Khan Ali and Kubbra Sait. Rangoli, however, called Twitter ‘biased’ and ‘anti-India’, while sharing that she has no plans to return to the medium.
