		<span>NEW DELHI: The Indian government says it will ban offensive material from the Internet, after social media networks - including Facebook and Google - said they cannot screen content before it is posted.<br /> <br />Internet users in India are outraged, and are calling the move by the government "regressive".<br /><br />The Indian government recently held talks with executives of Facebook, Google and Yahoo, asking them to check all content before it is uploaded on social websites.<br /><br />Authorities seem particularly annoyed with tampered images of Congress leader Sonia Gandhi and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh being circulated online.<br /><br />Internet companies were also asked to filter out all defamatory and pornographic material.<br /><br />Kapil Sibal, Information and Technology Minister, said: "On sites like Youtube, Google, Facebook, Twitter, the subject matter was so offensive that it would hurt the religious sentiments of large sections of community in this country."<br /><br />Internet companies say they are not able to filter out offensive material.<br /> <br />Most are based outside of India, and they say it is difficult for them to decide what sort of content would be considered "objectionable".<br /><br />Also, India has more than 100 million Internet users, which makes it impossible to screen everything that's put up on the Net.<br /><br />Users too have expressed anger over the censorship. Websites like Twitter and Facebook are abuzz with comments calling the government's move as regressive.<br /> <br />Dheeraj Jangra, a student, said: "I think this is the first step by the government in the direction of complete censorship of social networking sites."<br /><br />Devesh Gupta, a student, said: "How can you censor someone's content? Who will decide what is objectionable or not? If you find something objectionable on a website, you are free to complain. But why censor the entire content?"<br /> <br />Last year, the government battled against Research In Motion - makers of the BlackBerry smartphone - over access to encrypted messages.<br /><br />Now the Indian government is planning to set up a unit to monitor information posted on websites and social media sites.<br /><br />- CNA/de</span>
