In Ghaziabad, the police have registered an FIR against 9 people including Twitter India and 2 Congress leaders. The FIR has been registered for giving communal color to the case.

Twitter suffered for not following the rules
Twitter has been hit hard for not complying with the new IT rules. According to the news agency, Twitter has now lost the ground of legal protection in India. Twitter has not yet implemented the IT rules implemented by the government from May 25, after which this action has been taken against it. That is, now cases can be registered on Twitter under IPC and the police will also be able to inquire.
Understand the meaning of removing protection in 3 points
All social media platforms are provided security under section 79 by the central government. This protection was also available to Twitter. In this, the company was not responsible for the use of social media platforms for any criminal activity and the company could not be made a party in any case.
Under the new IT rule, the government had asked social media companies to appoint a Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) within a month, who would resolve user complaints. In the absence of appointment, the government had warned of ending the protection under section 79. After this, on June 15, the first FIR has been lodged against Twitter.
After the government's decision, Twitter is now the only US platform from which this legal protection under Section 79 of the IT Act has been withdrawn, while other platforms like Google, Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram still have this. is security.
Accepted some conditions, could not decide on the rest
Earlier on Tuesday, Twitter said that it has appointed an interim Chief Grievance Officer as per the new guidelines of the Information Technology Ministry. Twitter will soon share its details with the central government. Twitter has taken this step when the government gave it the last chance to follow the guideline. In its notice, the government had told Twitter that if it fails to follow the guidelines, it will forfeit the exemption from responsibility under the IT Act.
The aim was to create unrest in society.
It has been said in the FIR that without checking the truth on Twitter, all these people gave a communal color to the incident. The video was made viral on their behalf to disturb the peace in the society and incite religious groups. According to the police, the incident took place due to a personal dispute between the victim and the miscreants. People from both Hindu and Muslim sects were involved in this, but the accused presented the incident in such a way as to create tension between the two religious groups.
what is the whole matter?
The Ghaziabad Police of Uttar Pradesh had registered an FIR after a video of an elderly man named Abdul Samad being assaulted and molested in the Loni area went viral. This action was taken on all of them due to wrongly giving communal color to the incident. In a video going viral on social media, it is seen that an elderly Muslim was beaten up and his beard was cut.

politics over the incident
Politics is also happening in the matter. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday said such cruelty is shameful for both society and religion. He tweeted that I am not ready to believe that the true devotee of Shri Ram can do this. Such cruelty is far from humanity and is shameful for both society and religion.
Responding to this, UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath tweeted, 'The first lesson of Lord Shri Ram is to speak the truth, which you have never done in life. You should be ashamed that even after telling the truth by the police, you are engaged in spreading poison in society.
