Agrawal, 37, holds a bachelor’s degree from IIT Bombay and a PhD in computer science from Stanford University.

गाली गफतौर सोशल मीडिया+ट्विटर पर सख्त हुई केंद्र सरकार

(नईदिल्ली)#सोशलमीडिया पर सरकार हुई सख्त ।
केंद्रीय मंत्री #रविशंकरप्रसाद ने आज #राजयसभा में #ट्विटर और गालिगफ़तौर मीडिया को सीधी चेतावनी दी
सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी (आईटी) मंत्री रविशंकर प्रसाद ने फेसबुक, ट्विटर, व्हाट्सऐप और लिंक्डइन जैसे सोशल मीडिया मंचों को आगाह किया कि अगर उनका उपयोग भारत में झूठी खबरें फैलाने, हिंसा या वैमनस्य को बढ़ावा देने में किया जाता है तो उनके खिलाफ सख्ती की जाएगी।
प्रसाद ने राज्यसभा में शून्यकाल के दौरान विभिन्न पूरक सवालों का जवाब देते हुए कहा कि सरकार सोशल मीडिया का सम्मान करती है और इस मंच से लोग अधिकार संपन्न हुए हैं। उन्होंने कहा कि भारत के डिजिटल इंडिया कार्यक्रम में सोशल मीडिया की अहम भूमिका रही है।
सरकार आलोचना के अधिकार का भी सम्मान करती है लेकिन ऐसे मंचों को देश के संविधान तथा कानूनों का पालन करना होगा। उन्होंने कहा कि अगर सोशल मीडिया के जरिए चुनाव प्रक्रिया को प्रभावित करने की कोशिश की जाती है तो चुनाव आयोग के अलावा सरकार भी कार्रवाई करेगी।
उन्होंने कहा कि पिछले दिनों अमेरिकी संसद भवन में हिंसा और यहां लाल किले में किसानों की ट्रैक्टर परेड के दौरान हिंसा के समय ऐसे मंचों का आचरण विरोधाभासी रहा। उन्होंने कहा कि कई सोशल मीडिया मंचों ने अमेरिका में पुलिस की कार्रवाई का समर्थन किया लेकिन यहां भारत में उलटा रुख अपनाया। उन्होंने कहा कि ऐसा दोहरा मानदंड स्वीकार नहीं किया जा सकता।
प्रसाद ने कहा कि ऐसी कंपनियां भारत में काम करें, पैसे कमाएं लेकिन साथ ही वे संविधान और देश के कानूनों का भी पालन करें।
