New Delhi, Sept. 5 -- The Union government has blocked the X (formerly Twitter) account of Austrian economist Gunther Fehlinger-Jahn after he posted a controversial post calling to 'dismantle India,' accompanied by the so-called map of Khalistan.

According to reports, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology flagged the viral post and directed X to withhold access to the account for Indian users. The account has since been disabled in India.

"I call to dismantle India into ExIndia. @narendramodi is Russia's man. We need friends of freedom for @KhalistanNet." Fehlinger-Jahn wrote in the controversial post, eliciting angry reactions on social media.
