Background

Breaking News LIVE Updates, September 30, 2021: Amid the ongoing political crisis in Punjab Congress, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan took a jibe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and alleged that he was sinking the party.

"Rahul Gandhi is sinking Congress, disposed off a well-established Punjab government," he remarked at a public rally in Prithvipur.

Taking a dig at the party, he said that state Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu has "run away" after Captain Amarinder Singh was "removed" from the post of Punjab Chief Minster because of Sidhu, for which he again blamed Rahul Gandhi.

"Amarinder was removed because of Sidhu, now Sidhu has run away as well. We don't have to do anything as long as Rahul Gandhi is there," said Chouhan.

YouTube will block all anti-vaccine content, moving beyond COVID-19 to include content that alleges vaccines cause chronic health effects or contains misinformation on the substances in vaccines, it said in a blog post on Wednesday.

The online video company owned by Alphabet Inc is also banning prominent anti-vaccine activists, taking down several channels, the Washington Post reported on Wednesday, citing YouTube's Vice President Of Global Trust and Safety Matt Halprin. These include Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Joseph Mercola, who have long been high-profile figures in the anti-vaccine movement.

The move comes as YouTube and other tech giants like Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc. have been criticized for not doing enough to stop the spread of false health information on their sites.
