hey Advitiya,
I am no one to lecture you on what you write. But i suppose that don't "trivialize" the whole matter to blogs alone. Put it as Internet censorship or censorship on Freedom of expression

Turns out the domain is owned by Yahoo. From whois:

WTF is the government thinking? They wanted to ban a typo of the
yahoo image search domain? This was against the national interest?

From what several people in this newsgroup said earlier, that block
dates back to an earlier "Directions to block Internet Websites"

Dude,
Aren't you asking someone else to finish your assignment? Why not start with Shivam/Neha's blog and branch out from there? Even if you manage to get some responses, wouldn't your article need your comments and insight?

Even if the content was questionable - it should never have been blocked.

A memo with Direction to block Internet Websites that is:
a. From the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology b. Sent to Internet Service Providers
Is sent via *fax*?
Is it just me or is there something weirdly amusing there?
There isn't even a mention of an email address on the letterhead!
