The Twitter handles of other Congress leaders and the party's official handle had also been blocked, but all are active now after getting unlocked.

Social media platform Twitter on August 14 had unlocked the accounts of the Congress, Rahul Gandhi and several others after temporarily blocking them for violating their policy. The Congress had alleged that it was being done on the behest of the government.

According to sources, Twitter has unlocked the accounts but have withheld the old tweets.
