SRINAGAR/NEW DELHI - India blocked roads in Kashmir on Thursday after the insurgency-torn region reported its first case of coronavirus, as several other parts of the country imposed restrictions on public gatherings in attempts to prevent its spread.
Authorities worry that these countries could be especially at risk should the virus begin to spread locally, due to poor health facilities and infrastructure. “I had to go to take my mother to hospital in Srinagar but the police has closed the road,” said Mohammed Ayub, from the nearby town of Budgam.
An internet shutdown that began in August following sweeping constitutional changes in Kashmir has only just been eased.
