After Rihanna and Greta’s posts, a massive quantity of people today applauded the move. However, there was a chunk of the population who weren’t very satisfied and posted saying the international celebs should not speak about India’s internal matters. Talking to SpotboyE about the complete matter Swara Bhasker took a subtle dig at Indian celebs who normally tweet about troubles taking place abroad, even though when international celebs are posting about Indian troubles, they are saying that it is India’s internal matter.

Swara mentioned even though speaking to SpotboyE, “We first need to address the issue of what is an internal issue? Is injustice in any part of the world an internal issue? Because if it is, then we should not discuss anything except what happens within the boundaries of our own countries, states, cities and mohallas. We can’t be that self-centered. When George Floyd was murdered and the black-lives-matter movement happened, our celebrities were regularly tweeting on it. Our government regularly issues statements on happenings around the world, the most recent being the coup in Myanmar. How come when our government comments on global issues we don’t think of internal matters? I think this is an era of technology and communication. All information is accessible to everyone at all times. People everywhere know what’s happening around the world and they express that opinion. And that’s the way it should be. What is wrong with that? I think the farmers’ protest has become such a large global issue because of the way our government has responded to it. If you notice, a lot of international celebrities are talking about the internet blackout and the crackdown on farmers and the militarization of Delhi borders. They are not commenting on the Farm Laws, per se. They are commenting on the way the farmers are being treated, and I don’t understand why that’s a problem.”
