16-hour blackout: Akhilesh Yadav's Facebook page returns, SP cries foul

October 11, 2025

Lucknow, Oct 11

Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav’s Facebook page was restored on Saturday after remaining inactive for nearly 16 hours, a party spokesperson said.

The SP alleged that the temporary suspension of the page was part of a “BJP conspiracy.”

The page went offline on Friday evening without any prior notice or explanation from Facebook.

Initially, party sources attributed the issue to a possible technical glitch, but after receiving no response from the social media platform, they began suspecting foul play.

Soon after the page was reactivated, Yadav made his first post, quoting Lok Nayak Jayaprakash Narayan: “By ‘total revolution,’ I mean seeing the most oppressed people in society at the pinnacle of power.”
