 "social media")
The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to the central government, and to social media companies — Facebook, Twitter and Google — on a petition for clarity on officers designated to order the blocking of content on these sites.
The petition is by former Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) ideologue K N Govindacharya. A Bench of Chief Justice D N Patel and C Hari Shankar issued notices to the ministries of home, finance and electronics & information technology, and the three online platforms. They are to file a reply within four weeks. The matter is listed next on April 14.
