Several top politicians including the chief ministers lost their Golden and Blue ticks on 'X', formerly known as Twitter after they changed their profile picture to Tricolour as part of the 'Har Ghar Tiranga campaign' of the government.
Eknath Shinde loses verification tick
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, his Haryana counterpart Manohar Lal Khattar, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, Goa CM Dr Pramod Sawant, Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami, Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde and his deputy Devendra Fadnavis and Delhi LG Vinai Kumar Saxena were among leaders who lost their golden tick on 'X'.
Delhi LG's blue tick mark disappeared.
Also, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) lost its golden tick on the social media platform after changing its display picture to the Tricolour.
Why has this occurred?
This is not a technical glitch or a crackdown by X on the profiles, but a part of the platform's verification guidelines. The X blog states that the verified users must have their authentic names and profile pictures on the platform. Any changes in any form will lead to the loss of badge temporarily following which the X team will review the profiles.
The users need not worry about it as the tick will appear once again after the successful completion of the all requirements.
