Pakistan government's Twitter handle withheld in India
The Pakistan government's official Twitter account has been withheld in India. When anyone tries to access the Twitter account of the Pakistan government, it says, "Account Withheld in India in response to a legal demand."
This is the second time in six months that the account has been withheld in India. What prompted the move against the official Twitter handle of the Government of Pakistan by Indian officials is yet to be ascertained.
According to a notice on the social media platform, the Pakistan government's Twitter account has been blocked from being viewed in India in response to a legal demand. The guidelines of Twitter are framed in such a way that they can compel it to withhold entire accounts in response to a valid legal demand, such as a court order.
The account, @GovtofPakistan, remained available for viewing and interaction from countries such as the United States and Canada. Pakistan's government official Twitter account was also withheld in October, 2022. It was also withheld in July but was reactivated.
