&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;They say the Centre&amp;rsquo;s move raises concerns of censorship and view the action as &amp;ldquo;needless interference&amp;rdquo; in implementation of the terms of service of a private company conducting business in India.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The government on Friday had asked Twitter to remove the &amp;lsquo;manipulated media&amp;rsquo; tag from certain tweets by Indian political leaders, including the BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra, &amp;ldquo;with reference to a toolkit created to undermine, derail and demean the efforts of the Government against the COVID-19 pandemic&amp;rdquo;.

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology did not comment on whether it would take further steps, while Twitter refused to comment on the issue.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;As per Twitter&amp;rsquo;s &amp;lsquo;synthetic and manipulated media policy&amp;rsquo;, it may label tweets that include media that have been deceptively altered or fabricated. &amp;ldquo;In order to determine if media have been significantly and deceptively altered or fabricated, we may use our own technology or receive reports through partnerships with third parties.

IT Act doesn’t empower government to seek removal of Twitter’s ‘manipulated media’ tag: Experts

-The Hindu Nearly 24 hours after the Centre’s request, the label remains. The government does not have the power under the Information Technology Act to direct Twitter to remove the ‘manipulated media’ tag from certain tweets, experts said. They say the Centre’s move raises concerns of censorship and view the action as “needless interference” in implementation of the terms of service of a private company conducting business in India. The government on Friday had asked Twitter to remove the ‘manipulated media’ tag from certain tweets by Indian political leaders, including the BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra, “with reference to a toolkit created to undermine, derail and demean the efforts of the Government against the COVID-19 pandemic”. However, the microblogging platform has not removed the label. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology did not comment on whether it would take further steps, while Twitter refused to comment on the issue. As per Twitter’s ‘synthetic and manipulated media policy’, it may label tweets that include media that have been deceptively altered or fabricated. “In order to determine if media have been significantly and deceptively altered or fabricated, we may use our own technology or receive reports through partnerships with third parties. In situations where we are unable to reliably determine if media have been altered or fabricated, we may not take action to label or remove them,” the company policy states.
