New Delhi: Google on Tuesday told the Delhi High Court that it has withheld in India a “defamatory” YouTube video of social media influencer Dhruv Rathee, which allegedly hurt religious sentiments. Google, which owns YouTube, made the statement before Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma on a petition filed by lawyer Amita Sachdeva. The video has been withheld only in India, as the issue of global blocking was pending before a division bench of the high court. Sachdeva said that on July 15, the GAC directed Google to take down the video within 24 hours, but it only “withheld the video” in India, which was only “partial compliance”. On July 3, the court had asked the GAC to decide on Sachdeva’s plea -- seeking removal of the alleged “objectionable” video -- within 15 days.
