Legal notice to Google for 'hatred against India' Oct 10, 2006
AURANGABAD: The Aurangabad bench of the Bombay High Court has directed the Maharashtra government to issue a notice to Google for alleged spread of hatred about India by its social network service Orkut. The order was issued by Justices AP Deshpande and RM Borde yesterday in response to a public interest litigation filed by advocate Yugant R Marlapalle. A picture of a burning national tricolour, bearing an anti-India messsage, was put on orkut.com and a community 'We Hate India' has been created on the site, the petition said. The petition also appealed to the government to appoint a `controller' under the Information Technology Act 2000 to regulate communities on the Internet. Orkut is an online community that conects people through a network of friends. The website provides an online meeting place to socialise, make acquaintances and find others with common interests. The next hearing in the case is after six weeks. I'm not too sure about Amitabh as Gabbar Singh.
