In her latest Tweet, tennis star Sania Mirza has hit out at people inciting hate following the terror attack on CRPF convoy in Pulwama on Thursday, February 14. Sania is of the view that celebrities are being forced to condemn an attack on social networking sites. “This post is for those people who think that as celebrates we need to ‘condemn’ an attack, tweet and Instagram and be all over social media to prove that we are patriotic and care bout our country..why??,” Sania wrote in a post.
“Cause we are celebs and some of you are frustrated individuals who have no where else to target your anger towards and grab every opportunity to spread more hate?? I don’t need to condemn an attack publicly, or come and scream from roof traps or all over social media that we are against terrorism,.. of course we are against terrorism and anyone that spreads it..any person in their right mind is against terrorism and if they are not then that’s a problem!!,” she added.
It must be noted the Sania was targeted by some social media trolls following the Pulwama attack after she posted tweets related to her look from an event. Following the trolls, Sania eventually took to Twitter and wrote, “Saddened at the attack on our CRPF soldiers in #Pulawama ..my sincere condolences to the families.. there is no place for terrorism in the world.. prayers for peace.” After Virat Kohli, Sania Mirza TROLLED for Not Condemning Pulwama Attack & Sharing her Pic.
