Elon Musk-owned X (formerly Twitter) has admitted its mistake over the obscene images row, government sources told ANI on Sunday. This comes after the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology had flagged obscene content. "Around 3,500 pieces of content were blocked, and over 600 accounts were deleted. In the future, X will not allow obscene imagery," the sources added.
