UAE Princess Calls Out Indian Twitter User Over Islamophobic Tweets

An Indian resident named Saurab Upadhyay was condemned by a UAE princess for posting anti-Islamic and racist content on his social media. Princess Hend Al Qassimi, a member of the royal family of United Arab Emirates said in a tweet that anyone who puts out such content will be ‘fined’ and ‘made to leave’ the country. 

The Inidian account had put out several tweets targeting Muslims and ridiculing Islam, which led to a sharp response by Princess Qassimi who shared screenshots of the tweets and said “you make your bread and butter from this land which you scorn and your ridicule will not go unnoticed.”

Another UAE based doctor from an Indian descent, Dr. Roshan, took to Twitter to deny the claims made by the troll account and said that he had been in UAE and it has always been kind to him, his family and a lot of Indians had earned very well in the country.

Princess Qassimi’s response has been applauded by several users on Twitter. Some even highlighted previous instances of anti-Islamic hate displayed by Upadhyay on the micro-blogging site.

In one post by Upadhyay, he had said all Islamic organisations “should be kept on vigilant watch or barred” as they only spread violence and unrest.
