So are we becoming China — Blogger websites being blocked in India?

I was just informed by Mridula (If you can access the website) that some ISPs such as MTNL, Spectranet etc. are blocking Blogger.com websites/blogs. The government’s vicious dragnet — if it is true by any wild chance — hasn’t reached our ISP yet so I can see the blogs. I fail to understand what the government stands to achieve by blocking blogs. Even if some blogs might be spreading rumours and hate messages in the wake of the recent Mumbai blasts, there are scores of other bloggers who have been working day in and day out to put on their blogs as much helpful information as possible — for instance Mumbai Help — and spreading around messages of peace and communal harmony. I hope this is not true.
