India claims to deport Zainab Abbas amidst World Cup 2023

India claims to deport Zainab Abbas, a well-known sports presenter amidst ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023. She went to India for the Cricket World Cup 2023 coverage, has reportedly left India owing to safety concerns, and reached Dubai.

Zainab Abbas has been in legal trouble over her past social media posts which some Indian nationalists claim are “anti-Hindu tweets”. An Indian lawyer named Vineet Jindal filed a case against her making accusations of tweeting anti-Hindu tweets about nine years ago. He claims in his tweet that Zainab has deported by the Indian Government after he filed a complaint against her.

On the other hand, Zainab denies the allegations and claims she is being unjustly targeted. She was facing the backlash of Indian nationalists. They asked the International Cricket Council (ICC) to deport her from India. At the same time, ICC has remained silent on the matter. ICC has also become part of controversy for selecting Zainab as the official presenter for the Cricket World Cup by Indians.

In the last tweet, Zainab being Pakistani shared more cultural similarities than differences and rivalry on the field but camaraderie off it in her last tweet.
