In the aftermath of the Pahalgam terrorist attack, Indian authorities have blocked the social media account of Pakistani athlete Arshad Nadeem. This move follows heightened tensions between India and Pakistan due to the recent attack.
However, despite the rising tensions, the accounts of Pakistani cricketers Shahid Afridi and Babar Azam remain unaffected. This has raised questions about the consistency of the decision-making process in blocking social media accounts related to Pakistani figures in India.
The reason behind blocking Arshad Nadeem’s account has not been clearly explained, but it is seen as a part of the ongoing fallout from the recent attack. Nadeem, a prominent javelin thrower, has been actively involved in international sporting events representing Pakistan.
While the blocking of Nadeem’s account is a significant move, the fact that Afridi and Azam’s accounts continue to remain active has caught the attention of many, leading to discussions on the role of social media in political and diplomatic tensions.
