RSS forms informal group to examine OTT content and propose censor board-like rules

India

  • RSS formed an informal group to examine OTT content, seeking a CBFC-like censor board for streaming platforms.
  • The group, including former vice-chancellors and pracharaks, will submit recommendations to the Culture Ministry.
  • This follows RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat's 2024 call to regulate OTT content he described as causing "moral corruption."
  • Congress MPs Ajay Maken and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra earlier opposed CBFC-style pre-certification for OTT platforms.
