In the letter, Kumar expressed “pain and serious concern” over the increasing number of gang rape cases which have agitated the general public. “It will be my request to take appropriate action to ban all porn sites and inappropriate content available on internet immediately after giving due consideration to the serious issue,” an official release said. Kumar also wrote that people, especially children and youths, are watching porn, violent and inappropriate content on internet due to its unlimited reach to them. The incidents (of gang rape and crime against women) take place in some cases because of the impact of these sites, he added.

“People make videos of heinous acts against women and get them uploaded on social media such as Whatsapp, Facebook etc,” he added.
