Digital Desk: The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology summoned Wikipedia executives in India on Monday to seek an explanation on how Indian cricket team bowler Arshdeep Singh's Wikipedia page entry was modified to show Khalistan affiliation. A high-level group, likely to be led by the IT Ministry Secretary, will work with the Wikipedia officials to ensure that such undesirable changes do not happen again in the future.
Young Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh was heavily trolled on the internet after dropping a catch during India's Asia Cup Super 4 match against Pakistan on Sunday. Pakistan won the contest with a ball and 5 wickets to spare at the Dubai International Stadium.
Arshdeep's blunder allowed opposition batsman Asif Ali to stay at the crease longer, which cost India dearly in the end.
While Arshdeep was being attacked and trolled online for losing a simple catch at a critical point, the Wikipedia article on the Punjab bowler was changed to claim that he was selected to play for the 'Khalistani national cricket team.' According to reports, the page was later restored.
Reportedly, the Centre fears that the modifications will promote discord in India and lead to law-and-order issues for the cricketer's family.
Meanwhile, the cricket community has backed the 23-year-old speedster fully.
India's World Cup-winning spinner Harbhajan Singh said that nobody drops a catch on purpose and Pakistan won because they were the better team on the day. ''.. shame on such people who r putting our own guys down by saying cheap things on this platform bout arsh and team.. Arsh is GOLD," he tweeted.
