Princess Hend Al Qassimi, a member of the royal family of United Arab Emirates, called out a series of “Islamophobic posts” on Twitter.
A Twitter account by the name of Saurabh Upadhyay put out a series of tweets targeting Muslims over Tablighi Jamaat occasion that spurred a spike in India’s COVID-19 cases.
What’s with peaceful people and spitting? New form of jihad custom made for 2020?” he asked on Twitter.
His derogatory and racist comments were soon called out by the Princess. She retweeted while sharing his screenshots that his tweets are “openly racist and discriminatory in the UAE will be fined and made to leave,”
He allegedly used profanity and foul language against the Tablighis, calling them “radical Islamist terrorists”. Upadhyay later went on how Hindus were being targeted in the Middle East he further said: “because Indians have built cities like Dubai from scratch.”
“All employees are paid to work, no one comes for free. You make your bread and butter from this land which you scorn and your ridicule will not go unnoticed.” she tweeted.
Since then Upandhyay has deactivated or deleted his account.
