Episode 7
73rd day of communication blockade since August 5, postpaid mobile services restored, internet and prepaid mobile services still down.
In the previous episodes, we’ve spoken at length about the difficulties that Kashmir has been facing since the 5th of August. Be it because of the communication clampdown, or the regular curfews or non availability of public transportation and accessible healthcare.
73rd day of communication blockade since August 5, postpaid mobile services restored, internet and prepaid mobile services still down.
In the previous episodes, we’ve spoken at length about the difficulties that Kashmir has been facing since the 5th of August. Be it because of the communication clampdown, or the regular curfews or non availability of public transportation and accessible healthcare.
Today, we are specifically going to speak about the problems that the women of Kashmir have been facing since August 5. Quratulain Rehbar has traveled across Kashmir since the lockdown, writing about the problems women face, be it when a family member gets arrested or when a family is only made up of women. Or the repercussions of statements made by Indian politicians such as 'Now we can marry women for Kashmir' on the women of Kashmir. She will speak to us about these stories, detailing how Kashmiri women are coping with the lockdown.
We will not refer to the women by their names to protect their identity.
