THREAD #Kashmir👇🏽

This week we're analysing the conflicting narratives on Kashmir.

On August 5, the Indian govt revoked the state's special status and imposed a strict communications blockade.

We've spoken with @MirzaWaheed, @tallstories, @AdityaRajKaul and @ihbarus. @MirzaWaheed @tallstories @AdityaRajKaul @ihbarus This has been one of the most complete and sustained communications blockades in Kashmir.

Journalist Nirupama Subramanian (@tallstories) has reported on previous Kashmir crises and compares the current blockade with ones she's seen before.
