An Allahabad court has issued a notice to search engine giant Google after PM Narendra Modi's image propped-up in the search for top 10 criminals of the world.

Issuing the notice to Google, its CEO and Google India head, the court also ordered a case to be filed against them.

The court action came in a petition filed by advocate Sushil Kumar Mishra who claimed that despite him writing to Google, the search engine giant refused to correct the mistake. The mistake was first noticed in 2015.

Google in its part said the result was due to its search algorithm.

“These results don’t reflect Google’s opinion or our beliefs; our algorithms automatically matched the query to web pages with these images.”
