New Delhi: The Delhi Police on Wednesday wrote to social media platform X, in connection with a complaint alleging that “derogatory, malicious and defamatory content” targeting constitutional heads is being circulated on the platform.
Several posts using abusive language against the Prime Minister surfaced across various social media platforms during the protests and subsequent violence in the national capital, they said.
The Delhi Police’s social media monitoring team has been continuously scanning online platforms to identify such content.
Upon detecting objectionable posts, notices are being issued to the respective social media intermediaries, directing them to remove the content.
Some users who made adverse comments on social media against the government and top leaders faced backlash and removed them.
