Maharashtra Congress’ Official Instagram Account Suspended, Sparks Political Row
Mumbai, May 14, 2026: The official Instagram account of the Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee was suddenly suspended on Tuesday, triggering political reactions and discussions across the state.
The exact reason behind the suspension has not yet been officially clarified. However, speculation is rife that the action may have been triggered due to technical issues or multiple complaints lodged against the account.
Sources said the Congress party has begun efforts to restore the account, with the party’s social media team reportedly in contact with Instagram authorities to resolve the issue.
Following the suspension, several Congress leaders directly targeted the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), alleging political vendetta behind the action.
According to Congress leaders, the account was allegedly targeted because of its frequent criticism of the BJP and the state government through social media posts. Party leaders have claimed that coordinated complaints may have led to the suspension of the account.
So far, Instagram has not issued any official statement specifying which post or guideline violation resulted in the action against the account.
The development has now drawn attention from both political circles and social media observers, with discussions intensifying over digital platform regulation and political communication online.
