Final Nail In The Coffin Of Pakistani Manipulations In Kashmir

Telecom network and landline connections in Jammu and Kashmir that have remained restricted in parts since August 5th this year has been restored in full. All postpaid mobile services are functional now. Since most people in the state have post-paid connections, it implies that telephonic connectivity stands restored.

It is reiterated that on August 5th, the Indian Parliament passed legislation to reorganize the state of Jammu and Kashmir into two Unions Territories and to revoke certain temporary provisions of Article 370 of the Constitution that were causing a hindrance in the seamless integration of the state with the Indian Union.

“When curfew is lifted there will be a blood bath,” said Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan during his address to the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). He parroted this phrase and other hate-filled rhetoric with monotonous regularity through his stay in the United States. That Pakistan was poised to respond with belligerence to counter the progressive changes in the state became quite evident by the behavior of the country’s prime minister on foreign shores. Against this backdrop, the decision of New Delhi to impose certain restrictions was very well conceived and mature. The temporary restrictions successfully contained activities of foreign-sponsored anti-national elements that, as was apparent, were determined to engineer subversion, violence, and disruption.
