Why in news
Asian News International (ANI) is suing the Wikimedia Foundation over the content on its Wikipedia page.
The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has sent a letter to the Wikimedia Foundation, questioning why it shouldn't be treated as a publisher and held directly liable for content.
The government’s letter highlighted complaints about bias, inaccuracies, and editorial control by a small group on Wikipedia.
Delhi High Court recently ordered Wikimedia to reveal the identities of individuals who edited ANI’s Wikipedia page.
ANI's Wikipedia page claims the agency is linked to government interests and has been accused of spreading fake news and pro-government propaganda.
