As per the plea, a regulatory mechanism for YouTube is essential because the platform has its origins in California in USA and does not take into account the religious and socio-cultural beliefs particular to India.

Our country is relatively conservative and has an inbuilt restriction not to speak or post any content that disturbs one’s religious sentiments, personal lives, no mudslinging against politicians, public personalities,” the PIL said.
