Telegram case: Delhi high court rejects plea challenging Centre’s temporary ban on platform
Mumbai/New Delhi: In a significant ruling for online platform regulation, the Delhi High Court on Friday rejected Telegram’s plea challenging the Centre’s temporary ban on the messaging platform, stating that the government’s action under Section 69A of the Information Technology Act was justified.
Justice Tejas Karia upheld the blocking order, issued ahead of the NEET-UG re-examination, to curb the alleged misuse of the platform by paper-leak and cheating networks.
