CIC upholds denial of info on blocking of X accounts during farmers protests

The Central Information Commission (CIC) upheld the government’s decision to deny details regarding the blocking of X (formerly Twitter) accounts during the farmers' protests. The CIC ruled that disclosing such information could harm national security and public order. The petitioner argued for transparency, but the panel deemed the government’s stance justified. This decision underscores the balance between transparency and security concerns in public information.
