Indian authorities have reportedly lodged a complaint after Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg tweeted a link containing information on how to support the ongoing farmers protest in India.
The tweet in question appears to have had a 'toolkit' that has been circulating on social media and the document was tweeted out by many others before Thunberg shared it. She deleted that tweet and later reportedly shared an updated version of the toolkit.
There has been no official statement from the Delhi Police yet. A Delhi Police spokesman told Anadolu Agency that he has no details to offer regarding the development.
In the aftermath of this development, Thunberg said she still “supports their peaceful protest".
“No amount of hate, threats, or violations of human rights will ever change that,” she wrote on Twitter.
We stand in solidarity with the #FarmersProtest in India.
