Child Rights Body Seeks Action Against Ullu App, Says ‘Extremely Obscene And Objectionable’ Content

The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has asked the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) to take action against Indian OTT platform Ullu for allegedly hosting obscene and objectionable content accessible to children. The commission has requested action against Google and Apple as well, and urged for stringent know your customer (KYC) norms for users of Ullu and similar apps. Ullu recently filed for an initial public offering (IPO) to raise INR 150 crore. Its operating revenue doubled to INR 93.1 crore in FY23 from INR 46.8 crore in the previous fiscal year, and profits increased from INR 3.9 crore to INR 15.1 crore in the same period.
