Centre serves final notice to Twitter on new IT rules

Ever since the Central government has introduced the new IT rules, social networking giants like Twitter, Facebook among others are opposing over putting several restrictions on their platforms. However, most of the tech giants agreed to comply with the New IT rules, except Twitter.

Although the microblogging network site has orally agreed to comply with the rules, the government is not getting a proper response from Twitter over adhering to the norms.

In the following suit, the Centre on Saturday served a final notice to Twitter to immediately comply with the new IT rules and warned that failure to adhere to the norms will lead to the platform losing exemption from liability under the IT Act.

“Despite being operational in India for more than a decade, it is beyond belief that Twitter Inc has doggedly refused to create a mechanism that will enable the people of India to resolve their issues on the platform in a timely and transparent manner and through fair processes, by India based, clearly identified resources,” the IT ministry said.

Twitter had recently said it was committed to India as an important market but criticised the new IT rules and regulations, saying they restrain free public conversation.
