Seven social media platforms have complied with some of the rules under the new IT rules that came into effect earlier this week. IT ministry is the main nodal ministry that deals with the matter. The rules were notified in February and 3-month time period was given to social media platforms to implement them. Interestingly, Twitter sent the communication late last night, a day that saw the government slamming Twitter over non-implementation of new IT rules. Twitter is yet to send out the details of the Chief Compliance Officer to the government as mentioned in the IT rules.
