Covid-19: Altaf Bukhari reiterates demand for restoration of 4G Internet in J&K

Jammu Kashmir Apni Party (JKAP) President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Thursday urged the Prime Minister and Union Home Minister to restore high speed mobile Internet, one of the prerequisites, in taking up preventive measures against the spread of Coronavirus-19 in Jammu and Kashmir.

In a statement issued here, Bukhari observed that restoration of 4G mobile internet services in Jammu and Kashmir would enable people especially the students, businessmen and employees to remain engaged inside their homes, thereby effectively containing the global pandemic COVID-19.

He said that as COVID-19 spreads at an alarming rate, the public health officials have called for minimal public gatherings—which is pushing many activities online.
