We as a country have issues to resolve today and will have issues to resolve tomorrow as well, but that doesn’t mean we create a divide or get perturbed by external forces. Everything can be resolved through amicable and unbiased dialogue. #IndiaAgainstPropaganda#IndiaTogether

Earlier in the evening, Bollywood superstars Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn and producer-director Karan Johar tweeted in support of the government after Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) issued a statement saying notable personalities should refrain from reacting on this issue and rather get “proper understanding of the issues”.
“Before rushing to comment on such matters, we would urge that the facts be ascertained, and a proper understanding of the issues at hand be undertaken. The temptation of sensationalist social media hashtags and comments, especially when resorted to by celebrities and others, is neither accurate nor responsible,” said MEA in its statement on Wednesday.
Rihanna had tweeted saying, “why aren’t we talking about this?! #FarmersProtest”. Climate activist Thunberg and and US Vice President Kamala Harris’ niece joined the singer to offer support to the farner’s protest.
