petition in the supreme court against the internet ban

The indefinite internet shutdown in Manipur since May 3 after violence broke out in the state has been challenged in the Supreme Court.

Due to this people are not only experiencing fear, anxiety, and helplessness but are also unable to communicate with their near and dear ones.
