Twitter suspends Kangana Ranaut's account
New Delhi: Micro-blogging site Twitter on Tuesday suspended the official handle of controversial Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut for violating its rules.
Reports suggest the move from Twitter came in the backdrop of one of her tweets on Monday wherein she had urged PM Modi to show his “roop” (Character) from the early 2000s in West Bengal to tame Mamata Banerjee.
Ranaut’s dig was speculated to be of Gujarat Riots of 2002 when under Modi’s rule (then CM of Gujarat) thousands of people were killed and lakhs were left homeless in one of the worst communal riots in the history of the country.
“We need super gundai to kill gundai... she is like an unleashed monster, to tame her Modi ji please show your Virat roop from early 2000’s” she had written in the tweet.

Online fraud: Hotel chef from Udupi cheated of over Rs 1 lakh by WhatsApp contact
Udupi: Udupi City Police have registered a case of online fraud after a 62-year-old hotel chef was allegedly cheated of Rs 1.13 lakh by a woman who befriended him on WhatsApp, claiming to be based in London.
The victim, identified as Pandu Kariappa Poojary, a resident of Kuthpadi in Udupi, was working at a hotel in Mangaluru.
He reportedly came into contact with a woman identifying herself as Emilda William on WhatsApp. During their interactions, she told Poojary that she planned to start a cosmetics and hotel business in India and would meet him during a visit to Mangaluru.
On April 7, Emilda sent Poojary a flight ticket from London to Delhi via WhatsApp. The following day, Poojary received a phone call from a woman who informed him that Emilda had arrived at Delhi airport carrying a demand draft worth Rs 5 crore along with other items. The caller allegedly asked him to pay Rs 70,000.
Subsequently, Poojary also received a call from Emilda, who was reportedly crying and spoke about the situation. Believing the claims, he transferred a total of Rs 1,13,300 in phases using a scanner. He later realised that he had been cheated.
