South Asia @ LSE.
In August 2019, the Indian Parliament abrogated Article 370 of the Constitution of India, and snapped internet and cellular services in Jammu and Kashmir in apprehension of civil unrest.

Kashish Khandelwal examines the immediate and long-term impact of denial of access to high-speed internet for the people of Jammu & Kashmir.
