The development comes as several incidents of age-inappropriate content, circulation of child sexual abuse material (CSAM), and alleged censorship on social media have been reported widely.

New Delhi: Social media regulation , safe AI, regulation on deepfakes, cybersecurity , and the semiconductor ecosystem are among the 17 subjects the Standing Committee on Information Technology will take up for review during 2026-27, an official bulletin said on Wednesday. The development comes as several incidents of age-inappropriate content, circulation of child sexual abuse material (CSAM), and alleged censorship on social media have been reported widely. "The Standing Committee on Communications and Information Technology have selected the following subjects for examination during the year 2026-27...Social and digital platforms and their regulation... Cybersecurity, Data Protection and Digital Trusts, Regulation of Synthetically Generated Information (SGI) involving AI, deepfakes and automated identity fraud etc... Safety controls, ethical standards and need for guardrails around the development and deployment of AI," the bulletin said.

Off late, use and misuse of AI has become a huge debate where governments across the world have started talking about safe and responsible use of AI. India's cybersecurity agency CERT-In, in the middle of October, issued a 'critical' advisory warning that autonomous Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents have accessed live systems and confidential data of Indian organisations without authorisation, while threat actors are actively weaponising open-source agentic AI tools to execute rapid cyberattacks.
