Twitter Inc has informed the Delhi High Court that it has made appointments to the positions of Chief Compliance Officer and Resident Grievance Officer, and Nodal Contact Person, in compliance with provisions of new IT Rules.

Senior advocate Sajan Poovayya, representing Twitter, submitted that renewed affidavits have been filed in court. "Twitter Inc initially hired Vinay Prakash through a third party contractor... the initial appointment was done this way to expedite it because Twitter Inc did not have a corporate presence in India. The appointment was considered contingent because Twitter Inc is expected to convert the position to a full-time employee as soon as practicable. Twitter Inc has since converted Prakash to a full-time employee effective August 4, 2021," said Twitter in its affidavit.
