Mobile services to be restored soon in Kashmir | | | Early Times Report Srinagar, Sept 11: With a relative improvement in the situation, the government is contemplating to restore mobile phone services in Kashmir Valley soon. A senior government official said that in the initial phase BSNL postpaid mobile services will be restored. "If the situation remains normal, the decision to restore other cellular networks will be taken accordingly," he said . Authorities have already restored landline phones across Kashmir much to the delight of people, who were facing huge crisis due to the information blockade. However, sources said, there has been no decision regarding restoration of Internet services. "It (Internet restoration) may take some more time as government apprehends that militants were using it to communicate with their handlers across the border. Also, there is an apprehension that anti-national elements may use social media to mobilize crowds. Due to Internet, mobile and landline services were snapped across Kashmir on August 5 hours before Parliament scrapped J&K's special status under Article 370 and bifurcated the state into two union territories. The communication blockade created huge crisis for people in the Valley. |
