Court filings: Indian agencies ordered X to remove ~1,400 posts or accounts from March 2024 to June 2025, as X and Modi's government clash over content rules (Reuters)
Indian agencies ordered X (formerly Twitter) to remove approximately 1,400 posts and accounts between March 2024 and June 2025, according to court filings. This action highlights the ongoing tension between X and the Indian government, led by Prime Minister Modi, over content moderation policies. The requests for removal stem from concerns over potentially inflammatory or illegal content. One specific instance cited involved an old post on X that became a concern for police in Satara, India, in January, underscoring the government's scrutiny of content on the platform.
