The CCSU has also sought details linked to the accounts, including the creator, original sources and uploader's name, IP address, phone number, email address, GPS location, recent access, login records, uploading details and other digital information associated with the posts for the purpose of investigation and prosecution in the aforementioned case. The notice shared a link to the post from the ten X handles asking them to remove it immediately. It also requested that the digital evidence related to the post be preserved and details of the account operators be provided to the police. The notice has been issued under section 79 of the Information Technology Act, 2000, IT Rules 2011 and the Information Technology (Intermediary guidelines and digital media ethics code) Rules 2021 and 94 BNSS. "A complaint has been lodged against the owners of several X profiles for posting objectionable content targeting the CM. These posts are misleading and have potential to deceive the public and disrupt public order. The disseminated content could spread misinformation and adversely affect law and order. Given the seriousness of the matter, these posts must be removed within 72 hours. This constitutes an offence under sections 352/353 and 356 of BNS," said the notice. Ranjit Mishra, IG, CCSU said that the government has given directions to X to remove certain objectionable posts in various X accounts. "We have sought replies from X and also given certain directions for removal of objectionable posts in certain X handles," said the IG. Bihar CCSU has clarified that in case of non-compliance within the stipulated period, legal action may be taken under the relevant provisions of the IT Act and BNSS. "The opposition parties have a role in the society to show mirror to the government and also highlight burning issues of people. Any posts on social media platforms by opposition parties is made based on what commoners feel about governance issues, safety and law and order. In Bihar, things are not going right with crime incidents on the rise along with widespread corruption. The opposition has a responsibility to show mirror to the government so that corrective steps are taken.But the government it seems , is trying to suppress the opposition's voice and people's voice by misusing it's powers. Our aim is to highlight people's issues only," said Shakti Singh Yadav, state chief spokesperson of the RJD, while reacting on the notices by state government to X. Recently, Choudhary expressed concern over misuse of social media. "These days some people are using social media platforms such as Facebook and others to pour abuses and try to spoil harmony in society. We are monitoring everything and such nasty things can't be allowed. People involved in such wrongful activities would be sent behind the bars. Any indecent activities and abuses on social media would invite stringent punishment," said Samrat....
