American big-tech deciding what's bad is much worse that than Indian government trying to dominate them. These companies are also not a single point of information for most of the people. Indians can still get government critical news from news sites.

Indians cannot get news critical of the government from companies within India. They have various tools and methods to harass Indian media into submission, that is simply not available against international media.

The reason for the ban is obvious. Twitter tagged propaganda by the government as fake news.
