💨 Abstract
BJP MP Dilip Saikia urged the Indian government to establish a regulatory authority for news portals, citing concerns over the rise of dubious digital news channels that spread misinformation, distort facts, and harm democracy. He claimed these channels, allegedly run as business ventures, can blackmail, give a bad name to the country, and pose a threat to security. Instances of people committing suicide due to malicious news were cited.
