‘Unlawful content regulation’: Musk’s X sues Modi govt

After US billionaire Elon Musk-owned social media giant X on Thursday sued the Union Government for alleged violations of the Information and Technology Act and unlawful content regulation, official sources said they would follow due process as per law.

Noting that all social media platforms must follow the law, sources said, “The government will follow due process in the matter.” The sources signalled a readiness to confront X in court.
