Following the revelation, several Twitter users have reportedly saved screenshots of the MLA’s social media activity, which allegedly includes liking posts with explicit or inappropriate content shared by random handles.
The posts that were liked by the MLA’s Twitter handle comprise a range of obscene and vulgar content, including explicit images and videos shared by handles based in both India and abroad. These handles are said to have a history of posting inappropriate content on their profiles.
