International pop star Rihanna on Tuesday extended her support to the farmers protesting on the outskirts of Delhi against the centre's agricultural laws, condemning the internet shutdown aimed at crippling the movement.
"Why aren't we talking about this?! #FarmersProtest," tweeted the 'Don't Stop The Music' singer, who happens to be the fourth most-followed user on Twitter with more than 100 million followers.
She also shared a news story by CNN on the internet shutdown in several districts of Delhi's neighbouring state Haryana after protests broke barricades to enter New Delhi and clashed with police in several parts of the national capital during the January 26 'tractor rally' protest organised by farmers.
The tweet sent the singer trending on Twitter with thousands of responses including one from actor Kangana Ranaut who called her a ‘fool’.
"No one is talking about it because they are not farmers they are terrorists who are trying to divide India, so that China can take over our vulnerable broken nation and make it a Chinese colony much like USA... Sit down you fool, we are not selling our nation like you dummies," Kangana tweeted.
