The Telangana High Court has quashed a police notice issued to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) under Section 94 of the BNSS seeking details of a user. The court noted that the user's name did not appear in the FIR under investigation, and therefore there was no prima facie basis for the notice. Section 94 empowers courts and police to order production of documents, but the court found this notice lacked a valid foundation.
