The Delhi High Court on Friday issued notice to the Centre on a petition filed by Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Deepke challenging the government’s decision to block the party’s X handle in India.
The petition challenges the Centre’s order directing the suspension of the social media account on grounds of national security. According to the plea, the X account of the party was withheld in India following government directions.
During the hearing, the Delhi High Court sought the response of the Central government in the matter.
However, the court did not pass any interim order directing the immediate restoration or unblocking of the X (formerly Twitter) account.
Further proceedings in the matter are awaited.
