Sonu Nigam’s reaction on fake post related to Ayodhya: Said- ‘I left Twitter 7 years ago because of this filth, I am not interested in making political comments’
Bollywood singer Sonu Nigam was once again embroiled in controversy recently. When the results of the Lok Sabha elections came on June 4, there was a lot of discussion about the defeat of the BJP candidate from Ayodhya. A debate broke out on social media about this defeat in which Sonu Nigam also came under target. A fake post in the name of Sonu went viral on social media platform X, due to which people started trolling him fiercely. Sonu has now given his reaction on the viral post. Sonu said – he left Twitter because of this filth. In a conversation with Hindustan Times, he said, ‘The post that went viral was shared from the handle of Sonu Nigam Singh. It was written in its description that the person is from Bihar and is a criminal lawyer. I am surprised that other news platforms including news channels got confused and even basic check was not done. Due to this filth, I was forced to leave Twitter seven years ago. I am not fond of making political comments. I believe in focusing only on my work. I am worried for myself and my family due to this incident.’ There was a ruckus over this fake post. After BJP lost the Ayodhya seat, a post was made from an account named Sonu Nigam in which it was written, ‘The government which beautified Ayodhya, gave a new airport, railway station, built Ram Temple after 500 years, gave an entire temple economy, the same party has to struggle for the Ayodhya seat. Shameful, people of Ayodhya! As soon as this post went viral, people started trolling Sonu Nigam on social media. One user wrote- ‘Did you even get a chance to sing a song? Did you ever meet the people whose houses were demolished or are you sitting here singing a fake song! You should be ashamed. When you don’t know anything, you should not sing.
