ISLAMABAD: The inhuman lockdown imposed by India in the Indian Held Kashmir (IHK) entered 106th straight day on Monday.
According to the Kashmir Media Service, though some restrictions have been eased in most parts of the occupied territory, the situation is still far from normal, especially in the Kashmir Valley and Muslim majority areas of Jammu and Ladakh regions where people are seething with anger over New Delhi’s anti-Kashmir moves.
Total ban on the internet, SMS and prepaid cellular networks as well as restrictions under Section 144 remain enforced. The onset of winter has compounded Kashmiris’ woes. People in the occupied valley continue to observe a silent protest against India’s unilateral actions by staying away from the educational institutions and offices. Shopkeepers also joined the protest by downing their shutters after opening their shops for a few hours in the morning. However, the weekly flea market remained open in Srinagar throughout Sunday. India’s Information and Broadcasting Ministry has asked cable operators not to air any channel from Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and Malaysia. The directions were passed during a long meeting held between a senior official of the Ministry Vikram Sahay and the operators in Srinagar on Sunday. The cable operators were reportedly instructed to block the channels from these hostile Muslim countries. A report citing officials says govt departments in the valley can get back their internet services only with a rider: the head of the department will be held responsible for any misuse.
