The social media company ‘X’ Corp today has contested a Delhi High Court order requiring the removal of allegedly defamatory posts about journalist Rajat Sharma globally, arguing that it violates international law and encroaches on other countries’ sovereignty. The court case involves a defamation suit filed by Sharma in response to abusive content on social media and TV.
X Corp (formerly Twitter) has approached the Delhi High Court, asserting that a video allegedly showing journalist Rajat Sharma using foul language against Congress spokesperson Ragini Nayak is neither fake nor edited. They seek to vacate an interim order directing the removal of the video from their platform and accounts of Congress leaders.
