New Delhi, December 20: Mobile internet and SMS services continued to remain suspended in parts of Delhi-NCR region even on Friday, despite mobile operators claiming that all services were restored. Several Airtel users complained that they were not able to send or receive messages as internet and messaging services remained shut in several parts. While internet services of mobile operators including Vodafone, Reliance Jio worked fine, Bharti Airtel users complained of no internet.
Several Airtel users shared a screenshot of the SMS they received from the mobile operator stating, 'As per government instructions, internet services have been stopped in your area'. On Thursday, telecom operator Airtel had claimed that all its mobile internet services which were suspended in parts of Delhi, were restored later in the day. The internet connectivity was snapped in view of the demonstrations planned by various groups against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and National Register of Citizens (NCR). Delhi Airport Flight Operations Remain Affected Due to Dense Fog And Crew Operational Limitations.

No Information About Internet Shutdown
Govt bans Internet services in #Delhi till 6pm (Airtel). If every citizen is getting effected then something is seriously wrong. No information was given, informing anyone. Is the Govt hiding the gravity of the situation in Delhi? #Kashmir_situation_in_Delhi?
