Twitter has been served a notice asking the social media giant to comply with all its past orders by July 4.

According to an official statement on Wednesday, the Ministry of Electronics and IT has said Twitter may lose intermediary status if it misses the given deadline to comply with the orders.

Losing the intermediary status would mean the social media giant will be liable for all the comments posted on its platform.

"A notice was issued on June 27 to Twitter to comply with all government orders issued till date. Twitter was issued notices earlier this month but it did not comply with it. This is the final notice," a government source said.

An email query sent to Twitter elicited no immediate response.
