Koo said it has also implemented a due diligence and grievance redressal mechanism supported by an Indian resident Chief Compliance Officer, Nodal Officer and Grievance Officer.

They are already familiar with the systems we have in place and will be the best people to further build on top of it,” informed Mayank Bidawatka, Co-Founder of Koo.

The MeitY had announced its draft new IT (Intermediary Guidelines) Rules for social media platforms on February 25. As per the new rules, the social media platforms will have to remove offending content within 36 hours after a government directive or a legal order.
