India Today
Centre had provided a three-month window to social media firms to comply with its rules. The companies, however, did not so, and the deadline ends tomorrow.
The clock is ticking for social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, which have a user base of more than 50 lakh in India. On February 25, the Centre announced rules for these platforms in the “significant social media intermediaries” and provided a three-month compliance window that ends on May 25. As per sources, a majority of these multinational social media platforms have not complied with the rules. Sources said that if the government doesn't receive a compliance report by May 25, the companies would be considered to have “forfeited their status as an intermediary” as per the rules notified.More Related News
