Chandigarh, April 15, 2018: Taking no chances, Punjab government on Sunday extended the suspension of mobile internet services in the four districts till midnight, April 16, 2018.

Disclosing this here today, an official spokesperson said that this order was issued for temporarily suspension of mobile internet services (2G/3G/4G/CDMA), all SMS services as well as all dongle services except voice calls in the territorial jurisdiction of four districts namely Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Hoshiarpur and SBS Nagar districts as a precautionary measure.
