Internet access across Jammu & Kashmir to remain at 2G speed till March 26

Jammu and Kashmir administration on Wednesday allowed access to all web sites on 2G mobile data services and fixed-line internet in the Union Territory till March 26.

Srinagar: Internet access across Jammu and Kashmir will continue to be restricted to 2G speed till March 26, the Union Territory's Home Department has said.

"Internet access across the Union Territory with internet speed restricted to 2G only and internet connectivity with Mac-binding shall continue to remain operative till March 26, 2020, unless modified earlier," the Home Department of Jammu and Kashmir said.
