Internet Ban in Manipur Extended For Additional Five Days With Immediate Effect, Now in Effect Until October 6

The Manipur government on Sunday extended the suspension of mobile internet in the state for five more days, till October 6. The ban was initially re-imposed on September 16 following violent protests over the brutal murder of two Meitei students. The five-month-long internet ban in Manipur, which was imposed after violent ethnic clashes broke out in the state on May 3, was lifted on September 23. However, the government re-imposed the ban on mobile internet services two days later, citing concerns about the potential spread of disinformation and false rumors through social media platforms. Manipur Violence: Internet Services in State Suspended Till October 1 Following Students’ Protests in Imphal.
