NEW DELHI: As Kashmir remains in a state of shutdown, without mobile and phone connectivity, those with families and friends in the valley are worried about the situation there, desperately waiting to hear from their loved ones.
Kashmiris settled outside the State in India as well as abroad have taken to Twitter to share their anxieties. While some speak about their inability to communicate with their folks in the curfewed state, others are sharing screenshots of their last conversations.
“Somebody From Kashmir Plzz Tell The Ground Situation of Kashmir… We are Worried… Unable to Contact Our Family ??????#StandwithKashmir,” wrote Syed Faizan.
“Communication suspended in @kashmir I want (to) call my family??” wrote another user.
M Junaid whose Twitter bio says he is a cultural anthropologist, in a series of tweets, said the last 24 hours have been the longest for him.
“Friends and family in #Kashmir were sending messages over the last few days asking if India has some sort of a final solution in mind. It was too hard to give comfort or say everything will be fine. Now the messages have stopped coming. The long night has begun #StandwithKashmir.” (AGENCIES)
