India's Parliamentary Standing Committee has summoned Meta, Google, X, and Snapchat for August 3 to discuss social media regulation, user privacy, and public order following extensive platform use during recent student protests over NEET-UG exam issues.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Consumer Apps, and 4 sources have reported it.

◆ The Wire takeaway

India's parliament is now treating platform liability for protest mobilisation as a regulatory matter, not just content moderation. Your compliance playbook in India just expanded from what you take down to what you enable - and the government wants proof you can control both.
