High-speed Internet ban extended till August 19 in Jammu and Kashmir

Authorities on Wednesday extended the ban on the 4G services in Jammu and Kashmir, which completes one year on August 5, till August 19.

In an order issued by the principal Secretary Home, the government said that restrictions on access to internet through mobile data services have been “necessitated” in view of its “misuse in planning and executing (militant) acts including attacks on Security Forces, political workers and innocent civilians, propagation of ideologies inimical to the interests of the country, misguiding the youth to join (militant) ranks, communicating and coordinating with handlers across the border to facilitate infiltration,” reported news agency GNS.
