New Delhi, Mar 17: Taking a cue from Australia, India should enact a law to make tech giants such as Facebook and Google pay local publishers of news content, senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi demanded in Rajya Sabha on Wednesday.
Raising the issue through a Zero Hour mention, the former deputy chief minister of Bihar said, The government must make Google, Facebook and YouTube pay print and news channels for the news content they are using freely.
The Indian government should take a cue from the Australian parliament that passed the world s first law last month to ensure news media businesses are fairly remunerated for the content they generate, he said.
