The Indian government has issued formal notices to Wikipedia, raising concerns over alleged bias and inaccuracies in its content. Complaints from various sources have prompted scrutiny of the platform's editorial control, suggesting that a small group of editors may disproportionately influence the information presented. The government is questioning Wikipedia's classification as an intermediary rather than a publisher, which could affect its legal responsibilities regarding user-generated content. This move follows a defamation lawsuit from Asian News International (ANI), which accused Wikipedia of portraying it as a 'propaganda tool' for the Indian government. The Delhi High Court has previously criticized Wikipedia for failing to comply with orders to disclose user identities linked to defamatory edits, warning of potential operational restrictions in India. As the situation unfolds, the government will likely take further action based on Wikipedia's response to these allegations.
