'No legal basis': X refuses to comply, to appeal Karnataka HC's decision on 'Sahyog Portal'
Elon Musk's X will appeal the Karnataka High Court's decision upholding mandatory onboarding on the government's Sahyog portal. X argues the portal allows arbitrary police takedown orders, bypassing legal due process and violating free speech. The court, however, emphasised the need to regulate social media, saying that free speech has reasonable restrictions. The government says Sahyog aims to expedite removal of unlawful online content, making cyberspace safer.
