2G internet services restored in Kashmir, January 26th, 2020, by Mir Suhail Qadiri

“A brief ‘gift’ of 2G internet for few minutes with restricted access meant a complete communication blackout for the besieged. No phones, no calls, and no happy day, for Kashmiris. Meanwhile, the republic is on its knees waiting for the decay to give way.”

–Kashmiri Mudasir Firdosi

“To upper caste Hindus, you have the privilege to carry your atheism on your sleeves and wear it like a badge of honour, and mock Muslims every time they try to assert their identity.

Lekin maaf kariyega hamare paas wo privilege nahin hai (But sorry, we do not have that privilege). We will always be Muslims in the eyes of the oppressor. Muslim enough to be lynched or killed.”

“Parody of a rogue government that terrorises its citizens being scared of every individual is evident at airport security checks today. A paranoid CISF literally makes passengers remove their belts and shoes – leaving one wondering whether the next level would be stripping passengers completely.

Not satisfied, the person patting passengers down literally gropes them. The guy actually put his hands into the trousers of the passenger ahead of me as he winced!

The ordeal doesn’t end there. Just before boarding, another bunch of CISF personnel open and poke through your luggage. After mine had disturbed my bag arrangement, she couldn’t close the bag. I stood back and told her to organise it or I wouldn’t board the plane, much to her and other co passengers chagrin. But she had to relent finally.

The foreigner behind me holding a light blue passport was bemused.

Of course the government can’t trust people that it mistreats on a daily basis!”

–Indian Bobby Kunhu

“In Kashmir, internet speed is 85kbps with access to only 300 websites out of 1.4 billion websites in world, excluding social media.

When world is enjoying 5g, our moron is calling 2g a gift to Kashmiri people. Even the normal globally internet speed is 6.8 Mbps.

Keep this normalcy in your pocket.”
