New Delhi (CNN) The Indian government has one week to review the suspension of internet services in Indian-administered Kashmir following an order from the Supreme Court.

The recently created union territory of Jammu and Kashmir has not had internet access for more than 150 days, the longest such shutdown in India.

Internet, mobile phone and landline services were suspended after the government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, removed partial autonomy of the former state in August.

Friday's ruling came after the country's top court was responding to a series of petitions challenging the restrictions.
