Indian climate activist Disha Ravi has been arrested for her involvement in a farmer protest, which has been linked to Greta Thunberg.

Ms Ravi, founder of Fridays for Future India, was detained after allegedly helping to create a guide to the anti-government farmer protests and being the key conspirator in the documents formulation and dissemination, according to local police.

Delhi has called for twitter to block hundreds of accounts that had commented on the recent farmer protest.
