  "summary": "The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Communications and Information Technology has summoned representatives from major social media platforms Meta, X, Snapchat, and Google for a meeting today at 4 PM. The committee aims to evaluate the broader framework of online safety, focusing on three main areas: ensuring the digital safety of women and children, safeguarding the data privacy of farmers, rural residents, laborers, and general citizens, and assessing social media platforms' adherence to government rules governing law and order. This comes in the wake of Meta removing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Facebook video addressing action against examination paper leaks, which was later restored following an error.",
