2G too slow

Although authorities have restored 2G service on the mobile phones in Kashmir valley but people complain that the service is very slow and it amount to not having access to the internet service.

The media fraternity in Jammu and Kashmir remains unhappy with the government authorities as internet services have not been restored despite the government’s order. Recently, the Jammu and Kashmir government restored mobile internet and broadband services after six months. However, people are getting frustrated with the low speed as they are not able to access the websites they want.

Already the government has banned social media sites and they have also black listed lot of websites including the major media outlets. Students have not been able to access the internet with such low speed as they have not been able to download any material for their studies on such speed.

Students have been trying to download study material to prepare for their examinations, but in the past few days, they have been waiting only to get access. It is frustrating for students to wait so long even to get their study material. Many other students have complained that they have not been able to access even those websites which have been declared as white-listed by the government. Recently, when the authorities lifted restrictions on internet and broadband services, they banned numerous websites and also all social media platforms for people of Kashmir.
