Official Government of India web portal goes offline for possible maintenance
The portal has since been restored, with a total down time of about five minutes.
The government of India's official web portal was partially offline at about 12:30 pm today. Attempts to access the website greeted us with an error message saying it was due to "technical problems".A quick Is it Down Right Now? check netted us a "server is under maintenance" as the reason for the glitch. And while the home page was absolutely down, alternate links seemed to still be working, as we could Google pages and services normally on the portal and access them.
