Majumder was recently in the news after he wrongly tweeted on January 29 that a second person, named Rahul Upadhyay, had died in the violence in Kasganj in Uttar Pradesh.
His tweet read: After Chandan Gupta, Rahul Upadhyay killed in #Kasganj communal violence over #TirangaYatra. We are told they deserved this for raising “provocative” slogans and carrying saffron flags in a “Muslim locality”. Such a dangerous justification.“
He, however, later deleted the tweet and “clarified” that Upadhyay was injured in a separate incident: “Deleted an earlier tweet that mentions Rahul, although what I said in that tweet about dangerous justifications stands.”
While Zarabi did not respond to a text message for comment, Majumder said he was not aware of any such development, the report added.
