The
cause
of
the
outage
is
not
yet
known.
However,
Downdetector
said
that
the
outage
could
have
been
caused
by
a
problem
with
WhatsApp’s
servers.
In
a
statement,
WhatsApp
said
it’s
working
to
restore
the
services,”we’re
working
quickly
to
resolve
connectivity
issues
with
WhatsApp
and
we’ll
update
you
here
as
soon
as
possible.”

This
isn’t
the
first
time
that
WhatsApp
has
been
down
in
the
country.
The
last
time
WhatsApp
was
down
was
on
July
14,
2023.
According
to
Downdetector,
the
outage
started
at
around
11:00
AM
IST
and
lasted
for
about
an
hour.
During
this
time,
users
were
unable
to
send
or
receive
messages,
or
access
the
WhatsApp
web
app.
The
cause
of
the
outage
was
not
immediately
known,
but
WhatsApp
later
said
that
it
was
due
to
a
“technical
error.”
