Here's the truth about PM Narendra Modi's 2003 visit to the UK when he was Gujarat CM.

This is the UK Home Office's statement during the visit.


"The Home Office issued a statement in which it said, with neither warmth nor respect:"We are aware he's visiting the UK. He is not visiting at Her Majesty's government's invitation nor does the government plan to have any contact with him when he's here. We do understand the concerns expressed but there were no appropriate grounds to refuse Mr Modi a visa." Read more on Modi's UK visit here.


That story appeared in The Wire on November 17, but Twitter is abuzz with speculation about whether Facebook is blocking people from posting this not too flattering article on their walls?


Former Jammu and Kashmir CM Omar Abdullah posted: "Dear @facebook what is it about this article that worries you enough to block it from my wall???"  Followed by the link of the Wire piece.


Radha Khan @70kha tweeted: Some censorship happening - I had posted http://thewire.in/2015/11/17/when-mr-modi-went-to-london-15802/ on FB. And it's been deleted. Now when I've retried FB says no. @thewire_in.


Hmmm.
