New Delhi: Twitter on Wednesday suspended 550 accounts in the wake of violence related to the Republic Day tractor rally. A Twitter spokesperson said that strong action was being taken against the account holders who spread false information. “We have taken strong enforcement action to protect the conversation on the service from attempts to incite violence, abuse, and threats that could trigger the risk of offline harm by blocking certain terms that violate our rules for trends,” the spokesperson said.
