What is the #BJP position on hate speech, trolls, and social media?

The Facebook controversy last week — centred on a BJP MLAs post against Muslims — refocused attention on the culture of online violence. And its mirror on ground.

Gripping. Wide-ranging. 3-time BJP MP, NISHIKANT DUBEY — member of the Parliamentary Committee on Information Technology — shares his perspective on the party’s thinking on this.

He also takes on questions about communalism, protests, minorities, and the absence of repercussions for hate speech within the Sangh Parivar.
