About this video

🚨 Nepal has banned all unregistered social media platforms — including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X, and WhatsApp — after giving them a 7-day ultimatum to set up local offices and appoint compliance officers. The government is also proposing stricter laws, holding companies accountable for user-generated content. In contrast, India’s IT Rules 2021 already enforce such compliance, with platforms like Twitter eventually following suit. So, if tech giants can comply in India, why not in Nepal? 🤔 #nextias #nepal #socialmedia #ban #facebook #instagram #youtube #whatsapp #x #digitalpolicy #technews #itlaws #india #regulations #compliance #digitalrights #internetfreedom #currentaffairs #viralshort #trendingshort
