Bengaluru, Mar 28: Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from Bengaluru South Tejasvi Surya has found himself at the centre of a controversy after a woman broke her silence and accused him of abusing her for five years.

Amidst controversy over BJP’s decision to field this 28-year-old hardline Hindutva activist from the prestigious constituency, a businesswoman, Dr Som Dutta, took to Twitter to share some grisly details about him.

In a series of tweets, which are since inaccessible, Som Dutta accused the BJP candidate of being a 'womaniser, abuser and woman beater' and asked people if they wanted to 'blindly support him'. She also alleged she was not his first victim or would be the last and also claimed to be ready to share the proof.

Som Dutta said that she suffered for over five years before she made it stop by taking serious measures. She said that she was not his first victim, nor his last.

Dutta's tweets were shared by the Karnataka Congress, which asked if Tejasvi was another M J Akbar in the making and said that Bangalore South will remember the candidature.

However, after her tweets went viral, Dutta deleted them and put up a tweet asking people to leave the issue alone, as they are both from good families and people will get hurt if the matter is dragged further. At this time, her Twitter profile appears to be inactive.

New Delhi, Apr 29: WhatsApp on Tuesday said it will now allow up to eight people to connect on a group video call as an increasing number of people turn to digital platforms to connect with friends and family amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Facebook-owned company said over the last month, people on average are spending over 15 billion minutes talking each day on WhatsApp calls, well above a typical day before the pandemic.

"...we see that people all over the world are turning to voice and video calling on WhatsApp more than ever before. Group calling has been particularly useful and our users have asked to connect with more people at once," WhatsApp said in a blogpost.

Starting Tuesday, the company is doubling the number of participants one can have on a WhatsApp video or voice call from 4 to 8 people at a time, it added.

WhatsApp emphasised that like written messages, all calls on its platform are protected with end-to-end encryption.

"We have built group calling in a way that makes it available for as many users as possible, including people on lower-end devices and slow network conditions," it added.

WhatsApp said that to access the new, higher participant limit on WhatsApp calls, all participants in a call need to update to the latest version of WhatsApp available on iPhone or Android.

Video calling tools like Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom and others have also seen a significant jump in userbase and traffic as people connect while maintaining social distancing amid the coronavirus outbreak.

Last week, Facebook had introduced Messenger Rooms that will soon hold up to 50 people with no time limit.

It had added that the company will also add ways to create rooms from Instagram Direct, WhatsApp and Portal.

Noting that between WhatsApp and Messenger, more than 700 million accounts participate in calls every day, Facebook had said, adding that video calling on Messenger and WhatsApp more than doubled in many countries.

Also, views of Facebook Live and Instagram Live videos have also increased significantly in March, it said.
