Social media was used to incite hate: Amit Shah
"Around 60 social media accounts were created on 22nd February and were closed down on 26th February. Police will find those behind them. Social media was used to incite hate", Amit Shah said.

Anurag Thakur Faces Opposition Attack In Rajya Sabha Over Provocative Speeches During Delhi Polls

When Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu called Mr Thakur to present the second supplementary demands for grants for 2019-20 in place of his senior colleague and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, opposition benches started booing him.
Mr Thakur, who is the Minister of State for Finance, continued to present the demands, which had been presented in Lok Sabha last week.
As opposition created uproar, some in treasury benches hit back with the jibe of the Congress losing power in Madhya Pradesh.
This riled some Congress members who accused the BJP of engineering defections. Mr Naidu ordered that nothing would go on record.
