Meta must follow Indian law, not just global rules, say government sources after MeitY talks

New Delhi [India], 9 August (ANI): Meta’s platforms must be governed by Indian law, not merely by the company’s global policies, government sources clarified on Sunday and noted that it would be factually inaccurate to say that the government had “directed Meta to completely overhaul its algorithm.”

While certain concerns remain, officials said the core intent of recent engagements with Meta is to ensure the platform’s guidelines and content policies are fully aligned with Indian law.
