Soon after, the young activist posted on Twitter that she "still" stands with farmers and "no amount of threats" would change that.
Thunberg's tweets in support of the protests near Delhi are among the many posts that have drawn international attention over the past two days to the farmers' agitation after international pop star Rihanna also extended her support to the ongoing farmers' agitation. Rihanna also criticised the Internet shutdown at the protest site.
On Tuesday night Greta Thunberg had tweeted, "We stand in solidarity with the farmers' protest in India."

When asked if the police have named Greta Thunberg in the FIR, Praveer Ranjan, Special Commissioner of Police (CP), Delhi Police said, "We haven't named anybody in the FIR, it's only against the creators of toolkit which is a matter of investigation & Delhi Police will be investigating that case."
Reacting on the same, Minister for Information and Broadcasting Prakash Javadekar said that the 'Toolkit' matter is a serious one. "It clearly shows that some foreign elements are conspiring to defame India," Javadekar said.
