|The Morning Standard
ELON MUSK-led X (formerly known as Twitter) on Tuesday said that the Indian government ordered the platform to block 2,355 accounts in India, including those of international news outlets like Reuters and Reuters World, without providing any proper justification.
The microblogging platform also said that the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) demanded immediate action, within an hour, and required the accounts to remain blocked until further notice. As a result, the global news agency Reuters's account was temporarily removed from the platform. Later, X reported that after public outcry, the government requested the company to unblock it.
