Allahabad High Court issues notice to MIT on Grievance Redressal Officer

Under the rules framed under Section 79 of ITA 2008, it is necessary for all web sites operating in India to declare the name and contact details of the “Grievance Redressal Officer”.

It is obvious that many websites/intermediaries have not yet followed this compliance guideline.

In a PIL filed in Lucknow the Allahabad High Court has issued a notice to the ministry to give its views within 3 months.

Naavi.org appreciates this development.
