New Delhi: More than 60 days after a complete clampdown was imposed on communication in Kashmir, the Jammu and Kashmir administration on Saturday announced that all post-paid mobile services in the Valley would be restored from Monday. Though landline services in Kashmir had been restored last month, the administration raised concerns over the resumption of mobile services. “After reviewing the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, a decision was taken to restore mobile phone facilities in all the remaining areas of Jammu & Kashmir. More specifically, all post-paid mobile phones, irrespective of the telecom service provider, will stand restored and be functional from 12 noon on Monday, 14 October, 2019. This will cover all 10 districts of Kashmir province," principal secretary of planning, monitoring and development, Rohit Kansal, said in Srinagar.
