Mumbai: Twitter reinstates ‘blue tick’ verification symbol removed from Amitabh Bachchan’s account despite payment
Ever since Elon Musk, one of the richest people in the world, bought the micro-blogging website Twitter, he has been under fire for several controversial decisions.
Just yesterday, Twitter removed the blue ticks of verified Twitter accounts around the world, including Pakistan and India. Under the new policy, users will now have to provide the Blue Tick amount to verify the authenticity of the account.
Most of the users did not listen and did not pay the amount of blue tick. Twitter has removed the blue ticks from all such accounts.

The blue tick was also removed from the Twitter account of Indian film industry icon Amitabh Bachchan even though he had paid the fee as per the new policy.
Amitabh Bachchan wrote on Twitter that ‘Hey Twitter Bhai, we are listening, now we have filled the money, so please return our blue tick’.
After this tweet of Amitabh Bachchan, the users took the Twitter administration with their hands and thus Twitter realized its mistake and Amitabh Bachchan got the blue tick back.
