In occupied Kashmir, the Indian authorities continue to impose curfew and other restrictions across the Kashmir valley and several districts in Jammu region on the 22nd consecutive day, on Monday.

Due to severe blockade, people are facing acute shortage of life-saving medicines, milk, essential commodities including baby food as hundreds of thousands of people are besieged and Jammu and Kashmir has become a big jail for its inhabitants.

All internet and communication services and TV channels are closed in the Kashmir valley and Doda, Kishtwar, Poonch, Ramban and Rajouri areas.

 The authorities have put almost all Hurriyat leaders, including Syed Ali Gilani and Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Ashraf Sehrai under house arrest or in jails.
