If social media content creators refuse to remain within social norms, legal and regulatory frameworks have a duty to step in and prevent social decay.
Over the past two years, Swiggy Instamart has established itself as a frontrunner in creative advertising, consistently delivering commercials that blend humour and sharp storytelling.

The ad was more than just a promotion. It transformed an everyday activity into a playful, mini science experiment that surprised and delighted readers over their morning coffee.
Pakistan’s reported air strikes on Kabul last night, coinciding with Acting Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi’s visit to India, seem intended to send...
Recommendations appear in Niti Aayog’s Tax Policy Working Paper Series–II. It says there is a need to shift away from fear-based enforcement to trust-based governance.
In service with the British military since 2019, it is also known as the Martlet missile. Ukrainians have also deployed these missiles against Russian troops.
Pakistan’s army has been a rentier force available to a reasonable bidder. It has never come to the aid of any Muslims including Palestinians or the Gazans, except making noises here and there.
If Mr. Chari and the Internet had been around the works of Copernicus and Galileo to name only two famous examples would have run into the orthodoxy of the day and been suppressed.
It is good that we have freedom of speech so that Mr. Chari is free to air his views and let us conclude that those who would suppress free speech, be it right or wrong, are no friends of humanity.
How is the government responsible for the “current state of TV news media”? Care to explain?
The Indian govt has never taken up the responsibility of moderating content on TV news channels. The channels self regulate through their industry associations. The Indian govt has got nothing to do with it.
It all started with the late Sushma Swaraj. She became the I & B minister during ABV regime and censored F TV. The morally upright parliamentarians who indulge in fighting, sloganeering, nuisance activities should be stripped naked and paraded on donkeys; their wealth confiscated to fund freebies.
There are people who whine as soon as they hear “government intervention”. It is laughable to listen to them because their behavior reeks of dissociation from societal realities. They behave as if government keeps eavesdropping on their whatsapp group jokes. Which it clearly doesn’t ! But when episodes like the recent ones happen, society including those excessively paranoid about government control , should sit up and take note where exactly the future is headed to. Merely brushing aside by giving excuses such a government is not promoting scientific temper hence let youngsters peddle soft porn does not cut ice ! It is myopic to jump at the mere utterance of “government intervention”. Those who balk at this thought are already bound by various other legislations ! One can no longer ignore the blatant dissemination of soft porn and vulgarity in the name of freedom of speech !
Yes, because the government of India is the epitome of morality and scientific temper. A government that promotes pseudoscience, imaginary history, and agenda-driven news is the perfect candidate for online content moderation, right?
There is no denying that harmful content exists on social media, and guidelines are necessary to address it. However, the government cannot—and should not—be the all-powerful online moderator. The current state of TV news media, is a perfect example of what happens when the government wields too much control.
Great, so just because of a terrible and copied joke, we need more government intervention in our life. There is a lot of wrong that is going on social media, but this isn’t the answer, especially not under this administration (or any possible administration for that matter)
Not just India’s Got Latent. A whole industry has sprung up peddling soft and hard porn, expletive laden “cool” language and what not. AltBalaji, Ullu and others must be prosecuted too. The directors and production houses must be arrested and fined for promoting vulgarity and obscenity in society.
Also, the stupidity that goes around under the guise of “influencers” must be dealt with strictly. India’s Got Latent is a wake up call. We must act before it’s too late.
