Supreme Court Issues Notice On Plea For Restoration Of 4G Internet Services In J&K Amid Lockdown.

The Supreme Court on Thursday issued notice in a plea seeking restoration of 4G mobile internet services in the UT of Jammu and Kashmir, in light of the prevailing COVID-19 pandemic.

It is extremely necessary to enhance technology & connectivity in Jammu and Kashmir.

“The virtual classes of students can only be done through enhancement of technology” Ahmadi submitted.

The bench had also inquired whether anybody appeared for the Government, as only Advocates Shadan Farasat & Huzefa Ahmadi appeared on the VC screen.

“The virtual classes of students can only be done through enhancement of technology”, submitted the petitioner.

The PIL filed by Foundation for Media Professionals has challenged the government order which restricted internet speed in mobile data services to 2G only, for being violative of Articles 14, 19, 21 and 21A of the Constitution of India.

On April 3, the J&K administration passed an order to retain the existing restrictions on mobile internet till April 15.
