The Karnataka High Court has rejected a plea filed by Twitter challenging the Indian government's orders to block certain tweets and accounts.
The court has imposed a fine of ₹50 lakh on Twitter for filing the plea and stated that if the penalty is not paid within 45 days, an additional ₹5,000 per day will be levied.
The blocking orders mentioned in Twitter's petition were issued by the government between February 2021 and February 2022.
