Is right to internet a fundamental right or not ?
I am confused with regards to this topic
Did Supreme Court say that it is a fundamental right ?
Please throw some light.
I guess it's ambiguous right now.
However, the right to freedom of expression over the internet was upheld as a fundamental right by SC.
However, "access to the internet" is not yet a fundamental right. As J&K submitted this to the court and court didn't object to it (even after previously saying that the right to internet is protected under A19).
If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

No. Sc said clearly in its judgment of j&k internet ban case. However it said that under 19.1(g) right of engaging in trade with internet as a medium is a fundamental right.
TabsAndChords,
In spectrum, it is given -1913 Surat,1916 Masulipatnam
In Sonali Bansal's book it is -1911 Masulipatnam
on Wikipedia, it is -1913 Surat
confirm from old and New NCERT it should be Surat, they just set a trading centre in Masulipatnam I guess (update here also)
Why does it show that your profile is deleted?
It's Surat. Masulipatman was set up later.
I was trying to edit it to put a picture of the source but deleted by mistake, and then there was no option to revoke that.
From Anuradha Bhasin judgement of SC. Her contention was that the restrictions imposed in J&K precluded her (a journalist) from exercising her rightunder A. 19(1)(g)through the medium of internet. This contention was upheld. Nothing more was said.
In Faheema Shireen case, Kerala High Court had said that Right to internet was a fundamental right. In this case, the context was that the petitioner was a student staying in the ladies hostel of the college she was studying in. The rules were such that mobile phones (having internet facility) were not permitted to be used past evening hours. Her contention was that this deprived her of her right to life and personal liberty underA. 21.The Court accepted this contention and said that in this day and age, a person should not be arbitrarily deprived of facilities which enable them to achieve their full potential. The internet could well be used as an educational tool, and that was held to be a fundamental right under A. 21.
