Which is the first Indian State to declare Access to Internet as fundamental right?
Answer: D
The first state to declare internet access a right was Kerala.
In its 2017 budget, the Kerala government declared internet access a basic right of every citizen and announced the K-FON project to give free or low-cost internet to poor households. In 2019 the Kerala High Court also held, in the Faheema Shirin case, that the right to internet access is part of the right to education and privacy.
West Bengal, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu did not make such a declaration first.
