YouTube has complied with an Indian government order to block access in India to a CBC's The Fifth Estate story about the alleged contract killing of a Canadian Sikh separatist. This action is part of a broader move by the Indian government, which has also blocked 18 streaming platforms in India over content deemed 'obscene'. Additionally, access to a new documentary examining the assassination of a prominent Sikh activist in Vancouver has been restricted across prominent video sharing platforms in India.
