Indian Govt. is suppressing Sikh media voices as not many are bothering. But at the same time it is also setting up a precedence that cyber media can be blocked without notice. Reports like these are important because its not the instance but the path which is important.

Santhiya tips: Don't pronounce ਛ as ਸ਼. The letter ਛ gives a Ch sound (like in the word "change") while ਸ਼ gives a Sh sound (like in the word "shampoo"). An example of ਛ word is ਛਤਰੀ (umbrella) and ਸ਼ is used in the word ਸ਼ੇਰ (lion).
