Starting on July 8th, the Indian government ordered ISPs and telecommunication companies to shut down Internet and mobile phone access in Jammu and Kashmir in response to the protests. The funeral of recently slain local rebel leader Burhan Muzaffar Wani prompted hundreds of thousands of Kashmir residents to gather, only to be dispersed violently. The reaction to the unrest was swift. The local Indian government raided Kashmir’s newspapers and confiscated printing presses in the middle of the night to start off a 3 day ban on printed media and Internet, which was then extended to weeks, and now the internet outages are still reported in certain areas in Jammu and Kashmir after over a month. The Internet is shut off to prevent effective communication between the protesters, who are largely youth.
