Meta has apologised to the government after a video of Prime Minister Narendra Modi was briefly blocked on Facebook in India, with the company attributing the removal to a technical glitch, sources familiar with the matter said. “The content was removed in error and has since been restored,” a Meta spokesperson said in a statement. According to sources, the government is treating the incident seriously and is examining both Meta’s explanation and the circumstances that led to the video’s removal. Meta representatives and concerned officials may be summoned to provide an explanation, the sources added.
