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.

Punishment for those disrupting assembly proceedings, warns Speaker UT Khader
Belagavi: Speaker U.T. Khader on Friday warned that members who disrupt Assembly proceedings by talking in their seats during debates will be made to sit in the House for an entire day as a disciplinary measure.
The warning came after the Question Hour, when Deputy Leader of the Opposition Arvind Bellad was permitted to initiate a discussion on the development of North Karnataka.
At this point, expelled BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal objected, stating that he had been seeking a debate for the past three days but had not been given an opportunity.

Responding to the objection, Speaker Khader said Bellad had already been granted permission and assured Yatnal that he would be allowed to speak at the next opportunity. He noted that even as a serious discussion was underway, several MLAs were speaking among themselves with their microphones on, disrupting the proceedings.
Expressing displeasure over the conduct of members, Khader likened the situation to football, where players receive red, yellow, or white cards for violations. Similarly, he said, the Assembly issues warning cards to members who disturb the House. If they fail to correct themselves despite repeated warnings, they would be required to remain seated in the Assembly hall for a full day as punishment, he stated.
