The Government of India today blocked 40 websites linked to pro-Khalistan gourp Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) for ‘a campaign for registering supporters for its cause’.
“Sikhs For Justice(SFJ), an unlawful organization under the UAPA, 1967, launched a campaign for registering supporters for its cause. On recommendations of MHA, MeitY, has issued orders under sec 69A of the I.T. Act, 2000, for blocking 40 websites of SFJ”, an home ministry order said.
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) is the nodal authority for monitoring the cyber space in India.
Last year, the home ministry had banned the SFJ for its alleged anti-national activities.
