It has insisted that the new IT rules are not a way to interfere in the private matters of the users. Rather, these rules have been enforced so that the users feel safe on social media platforms. 

Permanent Mission Of India Regarding The New It Rules

The Permanent Mission of India to the UN has stated that the Information Technology ministry has discussed the matter with many stakeholders interested in the overall change in IT rules. This particular statement has been given by India after three rapporteurs of the Special Procedures Branch sent reports to the Human Rights Council over the IT rules in 2021. The organization has accused that the new rules formulated by the Information Technology department of the Indian government are not complying with the rules which have been laid by the International Code of Cyber Rights.

Retaliation By The Indian Government

The ordinary users will be supported in this case and the IT rule will be made final after the stakeholders are considered on every scale. The new rule was necessary to be enforced because of the increased instances of social media abuse. The circulation of obscene content and the spread of disharmony and terrorism will also be considered in this case. Disruption of public order and incitement of violence will also be considered under the new IT rules.
