Centre to notify strict IT rules soon to tackle deepfake issue: Rajeev Chandrasekhar

As compliance with the advisory on deepfakes has been mixed from social media and online platforms, Union Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology Rajeev Chandrasekhar has said that strict IT rules are likely to be notified in the coming days to tackle the issue. The advisory mandated that intermediaries communicate prohibited content, particularly those specified under Rule 3(1)(b) of the IT Rules, clearly and precisely to users.
