Meta Summoned to Explain Modi Post Glitch, Govt Seeks Answers

Meta is a big social‑media company that owns Facebook and Instagram.

In July, a video from India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi was briefly taken down by Meta, which was a mistake.

The government says this was a technical glitch and wants to know why it happened.

Meta said it was an error, apologized, and said it has new rules to check posts from important people.

The government will meet with Meta’s top leaders in the next week or so to ask for a full explanation and to make sure it won’t happen again.

They also want to talk about how Meta handles other similar problems.

The meeting will cover both policy and technical details.

The government is not satisfied with Meta’s first explanation and wants more information.

Meta’s new rules will add extra checks for posts from the Prime Minister and other high‑profile accounts.
