Citizens Can Now File FIR Against Social Media Firms

The Indian government is proposing measures to enable citizens to file First Information Reports (FIRs) against social media companies if they violate IT rules.

This initiative aims to hold these platforms accountable for adhering to regulations regarding content moderation and user data. The government’s intent is to empower citizens to report instances where social media firms fail to comply with established guidelines. By allowing citizens to file FIRs, the authorities hope to ensure stricter adherence to regulations by these tech giants.
