After this, the Maharashtra government has taken cognizance of the objectionable content on the second Chhatrapati of the Maratha Empire. State Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis called Cyber ??Cell IG Yashwasi Yadav to the ministry and ordered him to contact Wikipedia and remove the controversial content about Maharaj.
“I have informed the IG Cyber ??about the objectionable writing on Wikipedia. They have ordered to contact Wikipedia and take action…It is not operated from India. They have their own rules…We will give suggestions like this – instead of distorting historical things, create a rule…Freedom of expression is not unlimited. It cannot encroach on the freedom of others…,” the CM said.
