Parliamentary standing committee on information technology questioned the social media giant on its organisational structure and accountability in India. The discussion in the committee came in the wake of Twitter delaying appointing officials to address grievances under new rules issued by the government and a row over its decision to flag certain BJP handles as "manipulated media" for tweeting about Congress's alleged "toolkit" to defame the government. BJP's Nishikant Dubey asked why Twitter failed to tag as "manipulated media" the recent video of a Ghaziabad man alleging assault, despite a clarification from UP police that the victim had made false claims.
