Following the restoration of DSL services, residents of the capital, Muzaffarabad, had been demanding the restoration of mobile internet, citing a return to normalcy.
Before this, and in line with the Prime Minister’s announcement, internet services had already been restored in the Neelum Valley, Mirpur, and Kotli. The government has appealed to the public to exercise responsibility in their use of internet services.
