Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor GC Murmu has said on Wednesday that internet services would be restored in the valley in phases once the situation turns “more normal”.
However, he did not mention any timeline for the restoration. Internet services were snapped across all platforms in the Kashmir valley on the intervening night of August 4 and August 5, when the Centre announced abrogation of Jammu and Kashmir’s special status under Article 370 of the Constitution.
“We are reviewing it (internet ban) and as it (situation) becomes more normal, we will do it (restore) phase-wise. We have already discussed it with our administration and we are taking it up,” Murmu said.
“I think the situation in the valley is very good, it has improved very well. The police have been doing a yeoman’s service and there is a high level of coordination among all the forces here. People’s participation is very good, they are coming out and are interested in development,” the L-G described about the current situation in Kashmir.
