Bollywood celebrities Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, Karan Johar join Centre’s call to stand united against ‘propaganda’ against the country’s policies. This comes a day after International singer Rihanna called for support towards Farmer’s protest. On Tuesday, Rihanna made a tweet, reacting to the farmer’s protest. The singer asked why everyone worldwide is not talking about it. After international celebrities like Rihanna and Greta Thunberg called for support towards the farmer’s protest, Hindi film industry celebrities took to their respective social media platforms to stand by the Centre.

On Twitter, Akshay Kumar shared a statement by the Ministry of External Affairs, “Farmers constitute an extremely important part of our country. And the efforts being undertaken to resolve their issues are evident. Let’s support an amicable resolution, rather than paying attention to anyone creating differences.” The statement released by the MEA said that celebrities should refrain from commenting on the issues and try to get a “proper understanding of the issues”. An excerpt from the statement by the MEA read, “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.”

Take a look at the tweet made by Akshay Kumar below:

Ajay Devgn also made a tweet addressing the current issue, and said, “Don’t fall for any false propaganda against India or Indian policies. It's important to stand united at this hour w/o any infighting.” Suniel Shetty and Karan Johar too came in support of the government stand. Read their tweets below:




Meanwhile, as many Bollywood celebrities have come in support of the government stand, it was recently that Savdhaan India actor Sushant Singh’s Twitter handle was withheld. He has been supporting the farmer’s protest. His account was withheld for spreading fake information after the violence at the capital on January 26, Republic Day.
