New Delhi: As farmers’ protest intensified on Thursday after the Ghazipur Magistrate ordered the farmers to vacate the public spaces, Twitter users in India started tweeting with a hashtag calling out Prime Minister Narendra Modi to be a coward.
The hashtag #मोदी_कायर_है went trending on Twitter in India on Thursday evening as farmers and other activists anticipated police action later at night to vacate the farmers from protesting sites at the Ghazipur border.
The reports of police action were fuelled by the fact that farmers’ leader Rakesh Tikait along with Yogendra Yadav and others were booked under UAPA.
The users called out on Narendra Modi referring to him as “Kayar” (Hindi word for Coward). The hashtag was soon trending on the micro-blogging site with nearly three lakh tweets at the time of posting of this report.
The users also expressed their support to Rakesh Tikait, hailing him for his courage and steadiness for the cause of farmers. Reports across social media platforms also suggested that a heavy number of people were reaching at Ghazipur Border to support Tikait in what they termed as “crucial night”.
Tikait meanwhile made an announcement from the stage at the protesting site on Thursday night that they were ready to go to jail but not back to their homes and that the protest will continue.
Here are some of the tweets from the trending hashtag:

Jaat community should also introspect their grave mistake of voting more than 90% to BJP government in 2019 Loksabha Election. Now Kayar Modi is paying back.

Chennai, Nov 23: Music composer AR Rahman on Saturday issued a warning to individuals speculating about his separation from his wife, Saira Banu.
Taking to social media on Saturday, the 57-year-old musician shared a three-page legal notice addressing those spreading defamatory and "objectionable" content targeting him and his family.
"Notice to all slanderers from ARR's Legal Team," Rahman wrote on X.
It comes days after Rahman and Saira Banu announced that they are ending their marriage of 29 years.
The notice provides a 24-hour window for the removal of such content, stating that failure to comply could result in legal consequences under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
"My client informs the hatemongers and sharers of abusive contents to remove the objectionable content within the next one hour and a maximum time duration of 24 hours," read the notice.
Rahman’s legal team said the actions of these individuals not only tarnish his reputation but also cause distress to his family.
Rahman and Banu tied the knot in 1995 and share three children-- daughters Khatija, Raheema, and son Ameen.
