Delhi's Internet Shutdown During Protests: A Challenge to Constitutional Rights
The Delhi High Court is currently deliberating on a plea that challenges the government's internet shutdown around the Jantar Mantar protest site. Activists argue that the suspension of internet services is unconstitutional and undermines citizens' rights to protest and express dissent.
A Call for Accountability
Critics are demanding clarity on what prompted this arbitrary suspension of services, questioning if the government's actions align with their constitutional promises.
