Government order to block Hindutva Watch account unjustified: X to Delhi High Court

The Delhi High Court heard a case involving the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), challenging the government's order to block Hindutva Watch, an account monitoring religious hate crimes. X argued that the blocking order was arbitrary and violated freedom of speech. The court observed that blocking orders should be proportionate and questioned whether due process was followed in this case. The case highlights ongoing concerns over government censorship in India’s digital landscape.
