Suddenly saying CO is Blocked without any updates given in trading portal makes it unreliable for trading…

This is due to expected volatility. You can check status here.

Then how can we do Short-Selling today ?

You can use MIS Regular order type. Keep in mind this order type doesn’t have compulsary SL.

Yes you can.
