The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights has opened an inquiry into Meta Platforms following a BBC Eye investigation that alleged the company's platforms carried advertisements linked to Child Sexual Exploitative and Abuse Material (CSEAM), ANI reported, citing government sources.
The child rights body had issued a notice to Meta on July 3, 2026, seeking an explanation over the allegations.
After reviewing the company's response submitted a week later, the NCPCR has decided to initiate a formal inquiry to establish the facts of the matter, according to government sources.
