In 2024, India's score on internet freedom was 50 out of 100, indicating a “partly free” status. The score was assigned based on three pillars and showed a declining trend since 2017. Alongside plans to expand internet infrastructure, the current government continued to impose internet shutdowns, censored online content, and tried to silence its critics both online and offline. India's internet freedom is strained despite the constitution guaranteeing freedoms of expression and religion.
