BJP Leaders Lose Verified Status on Social Media Platform ‘X’ Due to PM Modi’s Har Ghar Tiranga Campaign
The ‘Har Ghar Tiranga campaign’ launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of India’s 77th Independence Day is causing many BJP leaders to lose their ‘golden tick’ on social media platform ‘X’ (formerly known as Twitter).
PM Modi’s Campaign Encourages Display of Indian Flag on Social Media Profiles
The PM’s campaign encourages citizens to display the Indian flag on their social media profiles. However, BJP leaders who complied with the request and changed their profile picture to the tricolour ended up losing their ‘golden tick’ as the social media platform has a policy that requires verified accounts to use their real names and display pictures.
BJP Leaders Who Lost Verified Status on ‘X’
- Haryana chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar
- Goa CM Dr Pramod Sawant
- Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan
- Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami
- BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra
Platform’s Policy on Verified Accounts
The social media platform has a policy that requires verified accounts to use their real names and display pictures. According to the platform’s amended criteria, the ‘X’ management will now review the leaders’ profile and, if it fits all of the guidelines, the golden tick will be restored.
PM Modi’s Profile Picture Change
PM Modi has also changed his display picture to the Indian tricolour as part of the campaign. However, his tick was not removed by the social media platform.
Understanding the Golden Tick
