Amid the copyright infringement tussle between news agency Asian News International (ANI) and Youtuber creators like Mohak Mangal, the Press Trust of India (PTI) has offered content creators “highly affordable” access to its videos.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), PTI addressed the YouTube content creator community, stating that it was aware of the recent issues faced by them regarding copyright. Describing itself as India’s “most trusted news agency”, PTI said: “To support responsible content creation, we offer individual YouTube creators access to PTI videos for your YouTube content and for use in other social media platforms.”
