New Delhi: The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has received complaints related to more than 50 cases of Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse Material (CSEAM) on Instagram over the past week and has initiated action by issuing notices to several state police departments and Meta.
NHRC member Priyank Kanoongo shared the information on the social media platform X, stating that the Commission had received numerous complaints concerning the circulation of CSEAM on Instagram.
“Over the past week, complaints regarding more than 50 cases of CSEAM (Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse Material) on Instagram have been received,” Kanoongo said.
Along with his statement, Kanoongo shared a public awareness poster highlighting the need to combat online child sexual exploitation.
After no report was filed, the NHRC issued a reminder on July 29, granting a further seven days while warning that coercive powers could be invoked.
