Tandav case: The Supreme Court has asked the Centre to file regulations on social media.
New Delhi:
The Supreme Court today called for screening of video content on OTT (Over The Top) platforms, saying even pornograpic material is being shown on some of them. There should be a mechanism to screen such programmes, the top court said as it directed the centre to place before it the recent guidelines of the government to regulate social media platforms. Now watching movies on internet and OTT has become common. We are of the view there must be some screening, Justice Ashok Bhushan said while hearing an appeal by India head of Amazon Prime Video, Aparna Purohit, who has challenged an order by the Allahabad High Court in the ongoing investigation against the web series Tandav .
