Check out Rahul Gandhi’s tweets here:
The centre revoked Article 370 of the Constitution on earlier in August and reorganized the region into two Union Territories – Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. Communication services were suspended post the move and curbs were placed on civilian movement with heavy security manning every nook and corner.
Pakistan has made desperate attempts to internationalise the issue but ended up being isolated at every forum with nations acknowledging Jammu and Kashmir to be New Delhi’s internal matter.
The restrictions imposed on J&K post the abrogation of article 370 has been lifted at many places. Phone services and the internet have been restored partially and life in the region is limping back to normalcy.
