The Manipur Government has revoked its earlier orders imposing temporary suspension of internet and data services in parts of the State following a review of the prevailing law and order situation.

The State Government had, through orders dated February 10, 2026, suspended internet and data services — including Broadband, VPN and VSAT services — across the entire revenue jurisdiction of Ukhrul district for five days with effect from 11:30 am on February 10. Similar restrictions were imposed for five days from 5:30 pm on the same day in Lhungtin Sub-Division of Kangpokpi district and Phungyar Sub-Division of Kamjong district.

After assessing the current situation and taking into account the inconvenience faced by the public and various institutions due to the suspension, the Government decided to withdraw the restrictions.

In an order issued under Rule 3 of the Temporary Suspension of Telecommunication Services Rules, 2026, the Governor of Manipur directed the revocation of all orders related to the temporary suspension of internet and data services, including VSAT, VPN and Broadband services, in the State until further orders.

All Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have been instructed to ensure strict compliance with the revocation order. The Government has also urged internet users to exercise responsibility while using online platforms to avoid circumstances that may necessitate suspension of services in public interest in the future.
