Days after his appointment as per the new IT guidelines, Twitter's interim resident grievance officer for India, Dharmendra Chatur has stepped down, sources said.


The development comes just after Union Electronics and IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad was denied access to his Twitter account for almost an hour on Friday over alleged violation of the US' Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Although, he was subsequently allowed to access the account, taking to India-made micro-blogging platform Koo, the minister called the action by the US-headquartered Twitter as "a gross violation of the IT guidelines".
