Due to "rolling frequency outtage" [sic]: From a claimed photo of FAA documents (I replaced the all caps with lowercase):

"... ground stop is in effect for all destinations until further notice due to rolling frequency outtage in multiple centers..."

and

"... the ground stop is now a nationwide ground stop for all centers, all destinations until further notice due to widespread frequency outtages.. ..."

Which is cited in the Hindustan Times (leading Indian newspaper), which refers to the Twitter source as a journalist.

(EDIT: @mods / @dang: Around January this year (iirc) somehow my account ended up rate-limited, posts relatively demoted (start low, drop quickly), vouches/flags relatively ineffective, etc. Usually I don't care too much and haven't bothered to do anything about it but it is sometimes annoying - it limits participation - and right now it buries some of the more valuable information in the discussion. Could you look into fixing it? I don't know of a reason this account would be penalized. Thanks.)

I guess they don't have many outages, otherwise they'd probably know how to spell the word by now...
