Meta ready to apologise over brief restriction of PM Modi’s Facebook post: SourcesMeta reportedly told a parliamentary panel it was ready to apologise over the brief restriction of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Facebook post.
When Facebook has not removed a lot of other objectionable content, who removed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s video from the platform, an MP asked Meta representatives.
The questioning came against the backdrop of the government’s summons to Meta’s top executives after Prime Minister Modi’s recent Facebook post addressing India’s youth and promising stringent action against paper leaks was briefly restricted on the platform.
According to the sources, META officials expressed regret over the incident before the panel and stated they were ready to apologise.
The committee headed by BJP member Nishikant Dubey held the meeting to discuss the subject ‘Social and Digital platforms and their regulation’, days after the government summoned Meta’s global team for briefly restricting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Facebook post.
