Dhruv Rathee didn’t post any tweet regarding Eid; Viral tweet is from parody account
New Delhi: A tweet from a parody account impersonating popular YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has created a stir online. The parody account, named Dhruv Rathee (Parody) posted a congratulatory message to Muslims for celebrating Eid peacefully.
The tweet, posted on the evening of June 18, read: "200 Million Muslim celebrated Eid Yesterday. Distributed meat to the poor and needy. Met their relatives. Had some amazing food. Gave Eidi to children and made them happy. None of them got drunk and went to other’s place of worship to dance and provoke. WHAT AN AMAZING COMMUNITY "

Distributed meat to the poor and needy
Met their relatives
Had some amazing food
Gave Eidi to children and made them happy
None of them got drunk and went to other’s place of worship to dance and provoke
WHAT AN AMAZING COMMUNITY…
It is clearly stated in X (formerly Twitter) itself that it is a parody account and not the official account of Dhruv Rathee. However, the tweet went viral as if it was from Dhruv Rathee’s official account. The original English tweet has since been translated into various languages, including Kannada, and posters are being widely shared on social media.
This is not the first time tweets from parody accounts have caused confusion. In the past, parody accounts of prominent figures like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and fraudster Lalit Modi have also created similar chaos.
Many celebrities have official X accounts (formerly Twitter) as well as parody accounts. The statements from these parody accounts, which often share sarcastic, satirical, funny, and critical content, should not be mistaken as official.

23-year-old woman found dead at Delhi home; suicide suspected
New Delhi (PTI): A 23-year-old woman was found dead in her house in Delhi's Prem Nagar area, with police suspecting it to be a case of suicide, an official said on Tuesday.
The deceased, identified as Anjali Singh, was found motionless in her room on Monday by her sister and her neighbour.
Police said her father, Vinod Kumar Singh (51), told them that he and his wife were away at work at the time of the incident, while their son and the other daughter were also not at home at the time of the incident.

According to the family, the room in which Anjali was found was locked from the inside. The door was later forcibly opened by a neighbour and her sister with the help of a crowbar.
Her body was found lying on the bed inside the room, police said.
Preliminary inquiry revealed that Anjali had allegedly hanged herself using a piece of cloth tied to the ceiling fan.
It is suspected that the noose eventually might have loosened or torn off, resulting in her being found lying on the bed.
Family members informed the police that Anjali was a final-year student of a librarian science course from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU). About a week ago, her final-year examination results were declared, and she had failed, following which she had been under depression, they said.
The family has not raised any allegation of foul play, police said, adding that no suicide note or external injury marks were found on the body during the initial inspection.
Inquest proceedings have been initiated in the matter as per the law. The body has been sent for post-mortem examination to ascertain the exact cause of death, and further investigation is underway, police added.
