The two-month-long suspension of internet services in Kashmir in the aftermath of the Centre’s withdrawal of J&K’s special status on August 5 has hit hard the new generation of entrepreneurs who extensively use social media to trade.

Scores of young men and women across the Kashmir valley had given wings to their dreams and started doing business via social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram and depended on the internet to earn their livelihood. However, their business has been shut since the night of August 4, when internet services were suspended for security reasons.
