NCW asks Twitter to block Sidharth's account after he makes a 'sexist' comment on Saina Nehwal
Siddharth is currently making headlines for controversial reasons. For the uninitiated, Siddharth landed himself in trouble after he passed a 'sexist' remark against Saina Nehwal. Ace badminton player Saina Nehwal had earlier shared her thoughts on the security breach of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. She had tweeted, "No nation can claim itself to be safe if the security of its own PM gets compromised. I condemn, in the strongest words possible, the cowardly attack on PM Modi by anarchists."
Following this, Siddharth took to Twitter and quoting Saina's tweet, he wrote, "Subtle cock champion of the world... Thank you God we have protectors of India. Shame on you #Rihanna." His tweet didn't go down well with many who slammed him for the same.
