I&B Ministry Issues Notices to OTT Platforms for Vulgar Content: Government Action| Oneindia

The I&B Ministry issued notices to Indian OTT platforms—Hunters, Besharams, and Prime Play—run by Webworld Multimedia Private Limited, directing them to remove v-ulgar content or face government action. It's the first time the central government has invoked vulga-rity laws against an OTT platform, citing IT Rules 2021 and the IT Act. The ministry gave the platforms five days to comply. The move addresses challenges posed by unregistered OTT platforms in India, emphasizing the importance of self-regulation and content responsibility. #IBMinistry #OTTPlatforms #V-ulgarityNotice #ComplianceDeadline #ContentRemoval #DMCRC #ContentResponsibility ~HT.97~ED.194~
