The Indian government has sent a formal notice to Wikipedia, citing bias and inaccuracies on the platform. The notice also emphasized that editorial control is limited to a few. Further, the government questioned if Wikipedia should be considered a publisher instead of an intermediary. This comes after a September ruling by the Delhi High Court, which criticized Wikipedia's open editing model over risks of defamatory content.
