This is the ‘real’ fake news!

<p style="font-weight: 400;">At 1700 hrs IST Thursday, #hindutvaVsarabworld was trending at No.2 spot on Twitter in Pakistan. As many as 51.4k tweets had used the hashtag to put it on top of the charts.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Dive deep into it and you'll find that nearly all of these tweets were majorly made by people sitting in Pakistan. Some even by Pakistanis sitting in faraway Canada and UK.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">For instance, a tweet by Tw!tterBrigade PTI (Twitter handle @Zaman_ Lalaa) says: "RSS followers of Hitler's ideology Stop oppressing Muslims of Hind and IOK. If Muhammad bin Qasim can conquer the whole of Hind at the voice of the oppressed girl of Hind, then Muhammad bin Qasim is once again ready to avenge the disgrace of Arab Muslim women #HindutvaVsArabWorld"</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Lalaa's location says he's sitting in Manchester. The profile picture on his handle is that of Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan interacting with his country's army chief and other officials. PTI in his Twitter account quite obviously standing for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the ruling party. The handle has just over 10,000 followers.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Not too below Tw!tterBrigade PTI's comment is another one made by @Ghulam_Qadir_ also from Pakistan. He usually tweets in Urdu but this one is in perfectly written English: "Recent events in lndia have raised worIdwide concern as the tempo of vi0lence against the country’s 200 million MusIim minority by Hindu hooIigans armed with sw0rds and guns has increased #HindutvaVsArabWorld," he tweeted</p>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>with Indian PM Narendra Modi's picture along with that of Adolf Hitler.
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This guy has 11.3k followers—all subscribing to his hate, in Urdu. This one was an exception, probably loaded by someone else in his social guns.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The list is endless. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to trace the Pakistan connection in all the venom being spewed against India in social media these days to pit the Arabs against Modi.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">That many of them are posing as Arabs (even Princess!) while trying to trend anti-India hashtags is also no secret.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The UAE and many Arab countries have been dialing PM Modi to seek help in their fight against Covid-19. Not even a single leader from the Middle-East has made any mention of the so-called 'Islamophibia' in any talks.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Have the 'prince' – or the real rulers of the countries – uttered a single word against India?</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">No.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">So, whatever is being served to you by certain vested interests should go straight into the bin.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">"Guys, thr are 20000+ so called prince  and princesses in Saudi &amp;15000+ in UAE. And blue ticks are  dime a dozen in ME. You find any jobless prince or Princess engaging in bigotry, report them immediately to law. These abusive cowards are more scared of law, than you can imagine," commented a Twitter user.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">By the way, it's #WorldBookDay that's trending at No.1 spot in India. And it's been there almost the entire day.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Self-explanatory.</p>.
