New Delhi: Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan’s Instagram accounts have been blocked in India owing to a “legal request to restrict content.” This action was taken following the Pahalgam terror attack. Earlier this week, Arshad Nadeem, Pakistan’s Olympic-gold-winning javelin thrower, also saw his Instagram account blocked in India.
Users who are trying to open the Instagram pages of Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan are getting a pop-up message stating, “Account not available in India. This is because we complied with a legal request to restrict this content.”
Shoaib Akhtar, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Haris Rauf’s Instagram pages have also been blocked in India. However, Shahid Afridi, Wasim Akram, and Waqar Younis still have active accounts, and users in India can see content posted on their profiles.
This blocking of Instagram accounts comes in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, where 26 people, primarily tourists, lost their lives.
