X says Centre ordered it to block 2,355 accounts, including Reuters; MeitY denies claim
NEW DELHI: Social media platform X on Tuesday alleged that the Indian government ordered it to block thousands of accounts in the country, including those belonging to international news wire Reuters and ReutersWorld, without providing any proper justification.
However, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has pushed back, saying it had immediately written back to X instructing the platform to unblock the news outlets’ handle.
