&lt;em&gt;The internet giants want to tackle fake news and surface details on political ads, but will it work?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She&#039;s Twittersphere&amp;rsquo;s newest star. Last week, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra joined Twitter and within 24 hours, racked up 160,000 followers. Of course, Priyanka&amp;rsquo;s nowhere near Prime Minister Narendra Modi&amp;rsquo;s 45-million-plus followers. But she and former Uttar Pradesh chief Mayawati, the Bahujan Samaj Party supremo who&amp;rsquo;s another Twitter newcomer, are notching up Twitter followers fast. Mayawati sent out her first tweet last month and now has collected 91,000 followers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moves by Priyanka and Mayawati to take to Twitter underline how social media platforms are shaping up to be an even more important battleground for politicians this election than in the 2014 polls. No one knows how many votes are won or lost on Twitter or Facebook, but everyone concedes social media&amp;rsquo;s increasingly become an influencer. And that&amp;rsquo;s what is stoking concern among onlookers who worry about social media rules of play in misinformation and downright fake news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One Twitter battle in India that&amp;rsquo;s turned particularly nasty involves the global talking shop itself. Twitter is being hauled over the coals by the IT parliamentary committee led by BJP MP Anurag Thakur. On February 1, the committee summoned senior global Twitter executives at short notice to quiz them about steps being taken to ensure users&amp;rsquo; security and safety as well as about allegations that the social media site&amp;rsquo;s been cracking down indiscriminately against &amp;ldquo;nationalist&amp;rdquo; users. The committee wasn&#039;t pleased when India-based executives turned up instead and refused to hear them, and now has told Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to appear before February 25.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thakur&#039;s determination to get Twitter&#039;s top executives to testify came after a group called Youth for Social Media Democracy demonstrated outside Twitter India&amp;rsquo;s office, accusing the platform of being anti-right-wing and said it was blocking accounts sharing right-wing content while ignoring inflammatory comments by left-leaning and Congress players. The group&amp;rsquo;s reportedly also levelling the same accusations against Facebook.&lt;br /&gt;

Last week, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra joined Twitter and within 24 hours, racked up 160,000 followers. Of course, Priyanka&amp;rsquo;s nowhere near Prime Minister Narendra Modi&amp;rsquo;s 45-million-plus followers. But she and former Uttar Pradesh chief Mayawati, the Bahujan Samaj Party supremo who&amp;rsquo;s another Twitter newcomer, are notching up Twitter followers fast. Mayawati sent out her first tweet last month and now has collected 91,000 followers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The moves by Priyanka and Mayawati to take to Twitter underline how social media platforms are shaping up to be an even more important battleground for politicians this election than in the 2014 polls. No one knows how many votes are won or lost on Twitter or Facebook, but everyone concedes social media&amp;rsquo;s increasingly become an influencer. And that&amp;rsquo;s what is stoking concern among onlookers who worry about social media rules of play in misinformation and downright fake news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One Twitter battle in India that&amp;rsquo;s turned particularly nasty involves the global talking shop itself. Twitter is being hauled over the coals by the IT parliamentary committee led by BJP MP Anurag Thakur. On February 1, the committee summoned senior global Twitter executives at short notice to quiz them about steps being taken to ensure users&amp;rsquo; security and safety as well as about allegations that the social media site&amp;rsquo;s been cracking down indiscriminately against &amp;ldquo;nationalist&amp;rdquo; users. The committee wasn&#039;t pleased when India-based executives turned up instead and refused to hear them, and now has told Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to appear before February 25.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thakur&#039;s determination to get Twitter&#039;s top executives to testify came after a group called Youth for Social Media Democracy demonstrated outside Twitter India&amp;rsquo;s office, accusing the platform of being anti-right-wing and said it was blocking accounts sharing right-wing content while ignoring inflammatory comments by left-leaning and Congress players. The group&amp;rsquo;s reportedly also levelling the same accusations against Facebook.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.telegraphindia.com/india/social-media-s-election-plan-twitter-facebook-and-whatsapp-want-to-bring-transparency/cid/1684587?ref=features_india-page&quot; title=&quot;https://www.telegraphindia.com/india/social-media-s-election-plan-twitter-facebook-and-whatsapp-want-to-bring-transparency/cid/1684587?ref=features_india-page&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

The internet giants want to tackle fake news and surface details on political ads, but will it work?

Social media's election plan: Twitter, Facebook and WhatsApp want to bring transparency -Furquan Ameen

-The Telegraph The internet giants want to tackle fake news and surface details on political ads, but will it work? She's Twittersphere’s newest star. Last week, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra joined Twitter and within 24 hours, racked up 160,000 followers. Of course, Priyanka’s nowhere near Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 45-million-plus followers. But she and former Uttar Pradesh chief Mayawati, the Bahujan Samaj Party supremo who’s another Twitter newcomer, are notching up Twitter followers fast. Mayawati sent out her first tweet last month and now has collected 91,000 followers. The moves by Priyanka and Mayawati to take to Twitter underline how social media platforms are shaping up to be an even more important battleground for politicians this election than in the 2014 polls. No one knows how many votes are won or lost on Twitter or Facebook, but everyone concedes social media’s increasingly become an influencer. And that’s what is stoking concern among onlookers who worry about social media rules of play in misinformation and downright fake news. One Twitter battle in India that’s turned particularly nasty involves the global talking shop itself. Twitter is being hauled over the coals by the IT parliamentary committee led by BJP MP Anurag Thakur. On February 1, the committee summoned senior global Twitter executives at short notice to quiz them about steps being taken to ensure users’ security and safety as well as about allegations that the social media site’s been cracking down indiscriminately against “nationalist” users. The committee wasn't pleased when India-based executives turned up instead and refused to hear them, and now has told Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to appear before February 25. Thakur's determination to get Twitter's top executives to testify came after a group called Youth for Social Media Democracy demonstrated outside Twitter India’s office, accusing the platform of being anti-right-wing and said it was blocking accounts sharing right-wing content while ignoring inflammatory comments by left-leaning and Congress players. The group’s reportedly also levelling the same accusations against Facebook. Please click here to read more.
