The Supreme Court on Friday sought a response from the Centre to a plea alleging arbitrary internet shutdowns in Arunachal Pradesh, Gujarat, Rajasthan and West Bengal, saying it wants to know whether there exists any "protocol" on the issue. "We issue a notice only to the Centre (MeitY), the Union to indicate whether there are standard protocols with respect to a grievance raised," said the bench.
