Bengaluru (Karnataka): Internet and connectivity issues in Jammu and Kashmir will be resolved further in the coming months, Kewal Kumar Sharma, advisor to the Lt Governor of Jammu and Kashmir said in Bengaluru on Monday.

"The restrictions remain to make sure that these facilities are not misused for promoting disorder. In some months from now it should be possible to ease various restrictions related to connectivity," he said during an interaction with investors.

Sharma also said after the Supreme Court directed to review the situation, the administration is holding meetings every week following which every fortnight further relaxation in terms of access to internet is provided.
