On Thursday, the Delhi High Court directed social media platforms, including Google and X, to remove videos related to court proceedings involving Arvind Kejriwal (chief of the Aam Aadmi Party) and others. This order came during a hearing of a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) that accused Kejriwal and others of recording and circulating court proceedings without authorization. The court noted that Meta had already taken down some flagged URLs, but Google claimed certain YouTube links did not contain recordings, a point contested by the petitioner. The bench ordered Google to remove specific links and file an affidavit regarding its actions. The court highlighted the importance of preventing the circulation of unlawful content and expressed concerns over the unauthorized recording of court proceedings, particularly in the context of virtual hearings. The matter is set for further hearing on July 6.
