Social media account of RSS event organiser suspended ahead of US programme

The X social media account belonging to AHEAD, the group organising a United States event featuring Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Chief Mohan Bhagwat, has been suspended ahead of the planned programme.

AHEAD, which has been coordinating arrangements for the event, saw its account on the platform disabled, raising questions about the circumstances leading to the action. The suspension occurred in the days preceding the scheduled gathering.

The exact reasons cited by X for the account suspension remain unclear at this stage. The development comes as preparations for Bhagwat's US visit continue, with organisers managing logistics and communications through various channels.

The incident underscores ongoing scrutiny of social media moderation practices, particularly involving high-profile political and cultural figures. AHEAD has not issued a formal statement regarding the suspension or its implications for event coordination.
