Indefinite Shutdown in J&K Is Abuse of Power: SC

Five months after the communication shutdown in Jammu and Kashmir

Five months after the communication shutdown in Jammu and Kashmir, the Supreme Court on Friday ordered the Jammu and Kashmir administration to review within one week all restrictive orders in place since the government ended special status to the former state in August. The SC also made many observations while hearing a cluster of petitions challenging the validity of the government’s move to impose restrictions.
