Kerala High Court Seeks Centre's Stand on BitChat Blocking Plea

Original: Kerala HC seeks Centre stand on plea challenging blocking of BitChat messaging app

The Kerala High Court has asked the central government to state its position on a petition challenging the blocking of the BitChat messaging app in India. The plea contests the app being blocked, and the court has sought the Centre's response before proceeding further. Details of the petitioners, the grounds of the challenge and the government's reasoning have not yet been made public, with the matter expected to be heard again once the Centre files its stand.

Why now: The court's request for the Centre's response signals an active legal challenge to an app block, drawing attention to digital censorship and app regulation in India.
