More than a 1000000 indians across different states in india like multiple chat disco and child country may lose their homes and their way of life if the court order is carried out. By behavior is one of the many farmers whove already been evicted. The allege that they were beaten up by government forest workers and forced from the forest years ago and warning forest officials burn down our homes and metres homeless we were forced to even look for jobs is duly leaders from our new plant activists say the 2006 Forest Rights act guaranteed the right of these people to their land but see the government is seeking to weaken this law with Indigenous People out of the way its easy for the governments to simply sell of lands to corporate storing those trees and Mining Operations misses has been happening for the past 5 years in on allies not scale the act recognize the right of 150000000 people to inhabit and live off 14000000 hectares of forest land in india so they could preserve their customs and culture and protect the forests the people here insist the forests provide them with everything they need it would be nice to have a few street lamps and a few paved streets but they refuse to give up the forest and move to a city they say if theres anything they fear more than forest officials it is the continuous erosion of their culture and identity for the Forest Department staff now its all about following procedure.

A facebook is calling for a measured approach by the singapore government in implementing its new fake news laws thats after for the 1st time it added a correction notice to a users post saying the original message contained false information but it did not alter the text single force law allows the government to publish corrections alongside claims about Public Institutions false statements could carry prison terms of up to 10 years and hefty fines only all the digital giants and social Media Companies have had some sort of run in with governments apple says it is taking another look at how it depicts border disputes on maps after ukraine criticized it for showing crimea as part of russia a video posted by a teenager on take talk about chinas detention of muslim week is led to the suspension of her accounts to talk is a chinese own Online Platform in april australia ordered facebook and google to remove violent content after the Christ Church mosque shootings in new zealand and while twitter has banned political ads Facebook Says it will not fact check advertising from politicians all michael vo is lecturer in Digital Rights and regulation in the faculty of lords at University College london he joins us live from there thanks very much for being with us so let me ask you 1st of all about singapore and this new law or about labeling the posters as fake news but not changing the content of it what do you make of that. So thats one of the provisions in the new law that came into force in october actually thats probably the weaker one of the provisions that does go through disabling content and it has minister ministers have discretion to do that if they wish to on the one hand it seems ok to just put a label like a rebuttal of some from the government of some but tension content but we have to ask a few things firstly social networks are used by everyone from individuals to campaigners to big broadcasters and with the kind of right to reply that were giving are we treating everybody even individuals in private conversations and spaces as if theyre broadcasters and is that what we want to be doing. How how would you compare this to the did the debate in in the u. S. Right now over these political ads because facebook has said and this this gets to issues of free speech as well in that they their argument is its not our job to to. To to decide if politicians are lying or not thats thats up to voters thats up to the public and were not going to get involved in that is that is that the right approach to be making. I think its a really tough one particularly in the United States where freedom of expression is a really strong constitutional right things turned out a bit differently in the public debate however theres a theres a really big question over what role platform should play is it possible for a platform to have a uniform policy around how they treat facts across all countries it may be the problem with tech is not there the problem big tech is now actually the tech that is the big you know can we can we make a unified policy and if all the other hand platform start to agree to take down what governments tell them to take down and start to correct what governments tell them to correct does that is applying to all countries does that mean that every social Media Company has to work with every country regardless of its human rights record in order to comply with this national law its a really tough one whatever happens the social Media Companies are going to be making some big important decisions and perhaps without religion as you would like them to be theres also this theres also this issue of whether whether Tech Companies like facebook are getting too big and whether they theres a valid argument for them to be policed in in some way so i think the question is policed by who if youre going to say theyre getting too big which country or governments or initiative are going to decide the rules of the road if we say we want to break up large Tech Companies do we break them up into Different National levels and which case theres a danger in many countries their governments will start to use social media as a mouthpiece and a mechanism for censorship so its a really big challenge im not sure that were going to get to hear in global rules but im also not sure that the public can voters are going to be very happy with the decision by facebook or google to simply set its own standards that its own rules good to get your thoughts on this michael veal thanks very much for being with us. Sunday will mark one year in office for mexicos president his Approval Ratings remain high but critics say he has done little to solve the major problems among them a rising crime rate mexico registered a Record Number of homicides in the 1st 6 months of this year alan fischer reports from mexico city.
