Comedian Kunal Kamra challenges amended IT rules in Indian court.

An Indian court has asked the government to respond to a petition filed by comedian Kunal Kamra challenging recent changes to the country's IT rules, which prevent social media platforms from hosting information that the government terms "fake". Kamra argued that the amendments "constitute unreasonable restrictions to freedom of speech and expression" and could lead to his content being "arbitrarily blocked" or taken down. The Bombay High Court has scheduled the next hearing for April 21.
