The Indian government has taken strict action against over-the-top (OTT) platforms, blocking 43 apps for disseminating explicit, violent, and culturally inappropriate content. This decision was announced in Parliament, highlighting the government’s commitment to regulating online content. The IT Act 2000 and the Information Technology Rules 2021 form the basis for these actions, mandating that OTT platforms adhere to guidelines set by the government to ensure responsible content delivery.
