9 Of faith and fever Worst dengue epidemics it has seen, this year the Tamil Nadu government responded by freely distributing a herbal concoction(मनगढ त कह न ), nilavembu kudineer, recommended for fevers under the ancient Siddha system of medicine. Even though there is no evidence of their efficacy, alternative remedies such as papaya-leaf juice for dengue. While it is hard for government bodies to curb such practices, what they must never do is to endorse(समर थन) them. Last year the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research launched an anti-diabetic herbal pill called BGR-34 on the strength of what appeared to be very poor evidence. So drug makers have to find a way to identify this ingredient and test it in largescale trials. This exercise requires not only massive financial investment but also intellectual honesty. Unfortunately, too many attempts in India by the government to validate traditional medicine are driven less by honesty and more by blind faith.

11 Continue So far dengue has made over 87,000 people sick across the country, while killing over 150. Both numbers are underestimations, given government s poor surveillance(ननगर न ) systems. Modern medicine is advancing towards greater transparency and replicability(प रत क त ) in clinical evidence, the government s claims on nilavembu aren t fooling anyone in the scientific community. But these are misleading laypeople(स ध रण ल ग) in ways that can hurt them. This is a matter of shame.

13 Making the Internet disappear Courts must take into account exceptional character of Net shutdowns and their impact on civil liberties. Aggressive protests- Cut-o the water supply to the entire region for an indefinite- People will be too busy looking for water- In this way, law and order has been preserved. If the government wishes to keep law and order, then it must find other, less drastic ways of doing so, 1)- Increasing security, 2)- Perhaps a curfew, 3)- Or even winning the Trust of the people 4)- Addressing their grievances(न क यत ) 21 st century, the Internet has assumed an increasingly important place in our lives. From banking to political speech, and from complex medical procedures to the purchase of basic necessities, important aspects of our economic, social, and cultural life now depend upon Internet. Many of the fundamental rights guaranteed by our Constitution freedom of speech and expression, the freedom of association, the freedom of trade are exercised in significant part on Internet.

14 Continue India had attained the dubious distinction of joining Iraq in reporting the highest number of incidents involving government mandated shutdown of Internet access with serious consequences both for civil rights, and for business. In article, published just two weeks ago- pointed to 55 Internet shutdowns in 2017 alone. High Court of Gujarat invoked(ल ग ) Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) to uphold(क यम रखन ) an Internet shutdown Section 144, which has its roots in the colonial-era British police state- Section 144 is primarily used to secure an area from damage or harm in the case of a potential or actual law and order disturbance, and more notoriously(क ख य त), to ban protests or other forms of political action. In the way that it is commonly used in the physical world, Section 144 Gujarat High Court s decision, however, was its failure to understand that the provisions of the CrPC cannot directly be transposed into the online world.

15 Conclusion The notion that the government must have the ability to control the Internet in order to preserve law and order is an intuitively(सहज ज ञ न य क त) attractive one. However, like many other intuitively attractive ideas, the concentration of more power in the hands of the government will only further disempower the individual against the state, and achieve a temporary illusion of security at the cost of a permanent loss of freedom
