Scathing revelations on internal functioning: Delhi Assembly panel
The Delhi Assembly's Peace and Harmony Committee is probing the social media giant's alleged failure to track down hate speech
The committee has called Prabir Purkaystha, editor of online portal NewsClick, and Pratik Sinha, co-founder of Alt News, for examination, it said in a statement
In an affidavit, filed in pursuant to a plea by Mohan and Facebook in the top court against the summons, the Delhi Assembly said that Mohan has not been issued any summons for breach of privilege
Facebook has argued that the Delhi Assembly can't summon a non-member to appear before it, since 'police and 'public order' do not fall within its ambit
Mohan had challenged the notice from the Delhi Assembly's 'Peace and Harmony' committee in the Supreme Court
This is in connection with a summon asking him to depose before it with regard to north-east Delhi riots
Facebook executives had earlier skipped the hearing of Delhi Assembly's 'Peace and Harmony' committee
Speaking at the one-day special session of the Delhi Assembly held last week, Delhi Urban Development Minister Satyendar Jain had said the MLALAD fund has been suspended
Experts said that primarily, the skipping of the summons issued by the Delhi Assembly's panel on part of Facebook is to avoid getting into further political and legal hassles
In a tweet, the 48-year-old AAP leader said he has gone into self-isolation
Last month, Facebook had said its social media platform prohibits hate speech and content that incites violence and these policies are enforced globally without regard to political affiliation
A Delhi Assembly panel has issued a notice to Facebook India vice president and managing director Ajit Mohan asking him to appear before it on September 15
