In a landmark judgment, India’s Supreme Court said indefinite internet shutdowns violate the country’s laws concerning freedom of speech and expression. The government must pass an order describing the reason and duration of the shutdown each time it wishes to implement this action. However, the order won’t directly affect the ongoing internet shutdown in Kashmir at this time.

The court decided that the Indian government has to produce a restrictive order detailing the shut down within a week. For now, people in the region of Kashmir will be still offline.
