India gives Telegram 15-day ultimatum over piracy; app briefly restricted for NEET re-exam
The Indian government has issued a stern warning to Telegram, demanding stronger safety filters to curb widespread piracy of films and OTT content within 15 days. Authorities have also asked the platform to submit an action report detailing steps taken to address the issue. Separately, access to Telegram has been temporarily restricted across India until June 22 to prevent cheating during the NEET-UG re-examination. The move follows the arrest of a gang linked to exam malpractice involving the messaging app. Both actions reflect growing government pressure on Telegram to comply with Indian regulations.
