Censorship has reached a new high in occupied Jammu and Kashmir after India revoked its special status in August 2019 and the Modi regime has employed a range of intimidating tactics to ensure no reporting critical of its actions comes out of the territory.
A report released by Kashmir Media Service, said journalists, rights activists, and even ordinary netizens in IIOJK are arrested for merely expressing their opinions on social media.
It said ordinary citizens’ Twitter, Facebook, &Instagram accounts are being persistently censored to ensure there is no voice contrary to the government’s claims. Kashmiris’ cell phones are being taped and every individual’s activities are being monitored by Indian agencies, it added.—INP
