Srinagar, Aug 11 (IANS) Internet connectivity and mobile phone services were snapped in Jammu and Kashmir Sunday. Officials unwilling to be quoted admitted that the measure was taken in a bid to prevent the spread of rumours.
As tensions escalated in the wake of the clashes Friday last at Kishtwar in Jammu region that left two dead and over 20 injured, authorities have snapped lines of communication. Service providers were tight-lipped about the development, but said this had become standard practice in times when tension simmered in the state.
