Allahabad HC Orders Restoration of Woman's Mobile Number Blocked After Husband's ComplaintPreviousNext

The Allahabad High Court directed the Lucknow Cyber Cell to restore a woman's mobile number blocked following a complaint by her estranged husband amid a matrimonial dispute. The court criticized the cyber cell's mechanical application of Ministry of Home Affairs orders without proper verification, noting the number was reassigned to another subscriber due to prolonged blocking. The court also asked the husband to explain why he should not pay damages for the frivolous complaint.
