India’s Daughter: Twitter brings people together through a ban

Mumbai: Most Indians, in the country and across the world with access to technology and following news are aware of the burning issue in India currently. The fire was always there. It got stoked when Mukesh Singh, one of the convicts sentenced to death in the infamous Nirbhaya gang rape, spoke what was on his mind in Leslee Udwin’s documentary India’s Daughter. What Mukesh spoke, mirrored the mindset that has always been there in our country.

After an uproar in the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha on Wednesday. Home Minister Rajnath Singh immediately ordered the documentary to be banned. That is when the internet played the classic Streisand effect.

Twitterati came together in making the most of the government’s knee jerk reaction. They reacted with anger. The anger wasn’t towards any person or establishment. It was against the mentality of the society.

Few weren't convinced of the documentary's quality, however that didn't stop them from speaking against the ban.









Celebrities too put forth their views on Twitter. Expectedly, most of them called out loud against the ban.






You Tube accounts uploaded the video. If one is taken down, two others uploaded it again.

On Facebook, the general mindset could be gauged through a few posts like the ones here.
