The Indian government has mandated microblogging platform X to take action against specific accounts and posts, according to statements by the global government affairs team of X, formerly Twitter. They emphasize disagreement with these directives, asserting that content should not be restricted on grounds of freedom of expression. Despite their compliance with the orders by withholding the content solely within India, X maintains its stance on extending freedom of expression to the affected posts and accounts.

The team highlights ongoing legal proceedings challenging the government's orders and confirms providing notice to impacted users in line with their policies. However, they express frustration over their inability to publicly disclose the executive orders due to legal constraints. Emphasizing the importance of transparency, X advocates for the publication of these orders to ensure accountability and prevent arbitrary decision-making.

In summary, the Indian government's directives have prompted X to take action, but the platform remains at odds with these measures, advocating for transparency and freedom of expression while navigating legal restrictions.
