A parliamentary panel questioned Meta officials over the removal of a video featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying an apology alone was not enough. During the meeting, lawmakers asked who was responsible for taking down the video and why it was removed while other objectionable content remained online. Meta reportedly expressed regret and attributed the incident to a technical glitch. However, government sources said the explanation was considered inadequate. The meeting also discussed algorithmic bias and child sexual abuse material on social media platforms. Separately, Hyderabad Police have registered cases linked to allegedly morphed AI-generated posts targeting the Prime Minister. (PC: NDTV)
