Kashmir's Internet Landscape Transforms: Fewer Shutdowns Ignite Hope for Digital Growth

In 2024, as reported by the internet monitoring platform ‘Internet Shutdowns’, Jammu and Kashmir experienced only two instances of internet shutdowns, compared to 10 in 2023. The number of such blackouts was 43 in 2022. The reduction in internet shutdowns has allowed local businesses, particularly e-commerce and other digital platforms, to thrive, providing them with uninterrupted access to markets and customers. Local businesses and digital platforms have started flourishing in the wake of a sharp decline in the internet shutdowns over the past two years in Kashmir.
