The X, formerly Twitter, accounts of Global Times and state news agency Xinhua were blocked on Wednesday as tensions remained high between the two neighbours.
The Post has confirmed that the Global Times account was not accessible in the country but was back by Friday, but Xinhua’s page said “the account has been withheld in India in response to a legal demand”.
Xinhua and Global Times did not respond to requests for comment.
India and Pakistan, which have clashed on many occasions over the disputed territory of Kashmir, carried out multiple strikes on the other side earlier this month before calling a ceasefire on May 10.

Both sides accused the other of escalating the conflict and have made unverified claims about casualties from missile and artillery attacks.
