ISLAMABAD – Deputy Chief of Mission at the Chinese Embassy, Lijian Zhao has taken a strong exception to the glorification of Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) by an Indian journalist, calling for tough Twitter vetting.
Zhao took to social media on Saturday and requested Twitter to suspend the account of Aditya Raj Kaul who has been trying to portray the terrorists in a favourable light.
Kaul, who is Senior Associate Editor and Anchor with the ultra-nationalist Republic TV, is uploading videos featuring BLA militants who attacked Chinese consulate in Karachi on Friday.
Although the attack was repulsed owing to timely response of law-enforcers, Indian media has been peddling the agenda of terrorists after the incident.
BLA had claimed responsibility for the attack which took the lives of two policemen and two civilians. The group also uploaded the pictures of the militants following which its account was suspended.
However, after the suspension, Indian media link up the ‘responsibility’ to further the interests of BLA and militant groups and assumed the role of a propaganda machine.
