Restrictions under Section 144 are enforced amid massive presence of Indian forces. Internet, SMS and prepaid mobile services continue to remain suspended for the people living in the Valley.
On the other hand, on the completion of 100 days of Indian military siege and communications blackout in occupied Kashmir, yesterday, scores of journalists working with different media organizations took out a protest march at Press Club in Srinagar against the continued suspension of internet services in the Kashmir Valley.
They demanded immediate restoration of the services to facilitate the media persons to discharge their professional duties.

According to a report, the administration of occupied Kashmir is mulling to shift 3 former puppet Chief Ministers � NC President Farooq Abdullah, his son Omar Abdullah and PDP President Mehbooba Mufti � who are currently under detention in Srinagar, to Jammu in the coming days.
