On February 25, the Centre had announced rules for social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, in the “significant social media intermediaries” and provided a three-month compliance window that ends on May 25. As per sources, a majority of these multinational social media platforms have not yet complied with the rules.

Sources said that if the government doesn't receive a compliance report by May 25, the companies would be considered to have “forfeited their status as an intermediary” as per the rules notified.
