Chandigarh: The Haryana government has suspended mobile Internet and bulk SMS services in the state’s Nuh district for 24 hours until 6 p.m. on Monday, owing to concerns of communal tension.
According to an official, the decision was taken to prevent the spread of rumours and misinformation through social media ahead of a planned religious procession.
However, SMSes related to banking and mobile recharge have been exempted from the suspension.
