Telegram — a popular freemium cross-platform messaging application (app) — has disclosed the administrator names, phone numbers, and internet protocol (IP) addresses of the channels sharing study materials of KD Campus and their teacher Neetu Singh for competitive examinations before the Delhi High Court (HC) on November 24.

This was done in compliance with the August 30 order of the same court, saying courts in India can direct a messaging app to disclose copyright-infringing information.
