Children as young as nine detained, protests and pellet shots, claims of torture, businesses shut and no mobiles or internet: it's now been two months of misery in India-administered Kashmir
Reports suggest Kashmiris are livid about India's latest move, as demonstrations continue, business owners refuse to work and children are being kept home.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the audacious move was to end "a vicious cycle of terrorism, violence, separatism, and corruption" and make Kashmir a "paradise once more." Since 1989 tens of thousands of people, mostly civilians, have died in a popular uprising against Indian rule by rebels wanting all of Kashmir to be part of Pakistan or an independent state.
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan last week told the UN General Assembly that India could unleash a "bloodbath" in the Muslim-majority region, warning of the risk of nuclear war. Pakistani children take part in an anti-Indian protest rally in Lahore on October 3, 2019. The nuclear-armed neighbours regularly target each other with mortar shells and gunfire on the de facto border known as the Line of Control in the disputed Himalayan territory, which is claimed by both India and Pakistan. Landlines have been restored but mobile phones and the internet remain snapped in most of the Kashmir Valley, home to around seven million people.
