The government cracked down on Austrian economist Gunther Fehlinger-Jahn, who called for “dismantling India", and blocked his X account in the country.

Jahn had dubbed Prime Minister Narendra Modi “Russia’s man" and advocated for Khalistan.

“I call to dismantle India into ExIndia. @narendramodi is Russia’s man. We need friends of freedom for @KhalistanNet," he had posted on X.

The Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology took up the issue with X and asked the social media platform to block its access in India. The Elon Musk-led American social media giant withheld the account in the country after the directive.
