"Deeply Concerned": Elon Musk's X Alleges Press Censorship In India

Elon Musk's microblogging giant X has criticised the Indian government over press censorship, following the blocking of the accounts of news agency Reuters in India.

X said the Indian government on July 3 ordered it to block 2.355 accounts in India, including Reuters, "within one hour without providing justification."

"On July 3, 2025, the Indian government ordered X to block 2,355 accounts in India, including international news outlets like Reuters and Reuters World, under Section 69A of the IT Act. Non-compliance risked criminal liability," X's Global Government Affairs team said in a post today.
