The Supreme Court has refused an early hearing on the PIL filed against the continuous internet shutdown in Manipur. The court said that the High Court has also seized the matter and the hearing is going on. We do not want parallel action on the action. It has been said in the petition that the complete internet shutdown for 24 consecutive days is affecting the economy, human and social needs and also the mental condition of the citizens and the petitioners and their families.
These steps are not only arbitrary, but also a violation of civil rights, as they have been hindered from sending children to school, checking their account status in banks, payment transactions with customers, disbursing salaries or even sending emails or messages Is. There is a double whammy on the citizens. First of all, the government is not able to improve the situation, on top of that the internet has also been closed.
