High-speed mobile internet restored in Kashmir

SRINAGAR (KIMS) — High-speed mobile internet and calling services were restored across the Kashmir Valley on Friday evening after remaining suspended for five days.

The mobile internet speed had been reduced to 2G, while calling services on prepaid SIM cards were barred on March 1, 2026 as a precautionary measure following protests in Kashmir against the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Syed Ali Khamenei in an airstrike carried out by the United States and Israel.

The restrictions were imposed by authorities as a precautionary measure to maintain law and order in the Valley. — (KIMS)
