The Reserve Bank of India banning any dealings with cryptocurrency in the domestic market caused a lot of fuss amongst the Indian crypto community. Many entrepreneurs and enthusiasts protest against the move arguing that it is a violation of fundamental rights. In fact, it even led some people to turn to the courts.
Recently, Satyam Tiwari, co-founder of Theblockchainstory, a web platform and Mobile Application, has filed a Writ Petition to the Supreme Court of India under Article 32 of the Constitution of India claiming a violation of the Right to Equality and Freedom to Trade & Business ensured by Articles 14 and 19 (1)(g).

Mr Tiwari stated to Coinidol:

His lawyer, Alok Nayak, added:

In fact, this petition is not the first in line. Back in April 2018, cryptocurrency startup Kali Digital EcoSystems (CoinRecoil) approached the Delhi High Court challenging the Bank’s ban. Another petition was filed by Flintstone Technologies shortly after.
