'You'll Be Fined & Deported': UAE Princess Slams Indian Man For Islamophobic Tweet Against Tablighi Jamaat

Upadhyay earlier this week had put out several tweets targeting Muslims over the March congregation of Tablighi Jamaat in New Delhi that led to a spike in the number of COVID-19 cases in India

New Delhi: Princess Hend Al Qassimi, a member of the royal family of United Arab Emirates, charged out a series of “Islamophobic posts” on Twitter Thursday by a user named Saurabh Upadhyay. Upadhyay earlier this week had put out several tweets targeting Muslims over the March congregation of Tablighi Jamaat in New Delhi that led to a spike in the number of COVID-19 cases in India. A twitter debate soon followed between Upadhyay and another user, during which the former allegedly used foul language. Claiming that the Tablighis spat on people, Upadhyay asked, “What’s with peaceful people and spitting? New form of jihad custom made for 2020?” He also allegedly used abusive language against the Tablighis, calling them “radical Islamist terrorists”.
Upadhyay later went on a say how Hindus were being targeted in the Middle East and that the region is what it is today “because Indians have built cities like Dubai from scratch”. Upadhyay seems to have deactivated or deleted his twitter handle. His posts led to a cutting response by Princess Qassimi who shared screenshots of the tweets and said anyone “openly racist and discriminatory in the UAE will be fined and made to leave”. She also reacted to some of Upadhyay’s earlier tweets, which along with all his other posts cannot be seen now as the account no longer exists. Qassimi said though the ruling family of UAE is “friends with Indians”, his rudeness was “not welcome”.
“All employees are paid to work, no one comes for free. You make your bread and butter from this land which you scorn and your ridicule will not go unnoticed,” she wrote. Princess Hend Al Qassimi's response has been applauded by several users on Twitter.
