ISLAMABAD:In Occupied Kashmir, the authorities continue to impose strict curfew across the Kashmir valley on the 16th consecutive day today (Tuesday) to prevent people from holding demonstrations against India’s move of abrogating special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
The entire occupied territory particularly the Kashmir has been turned into a military garrison as Indian troops and police personnel are deployed in every nook and corner.
The authorities also continue to impose information blockade as TV channels and internet links remain snapped and restrictions on media continue since August 5.
Almost all Hurriyat leaders, including Syed Ali Gilani and Mirwaiz Umar Farooq continue to remain under house arrest or in jails.
Despite the so-called direction for reopening of nearly 200 primary schools in selected areas of the disputed territory, schools are empty as wary parents refused to send their children to schools.
