Authorities on Saturday suspended the mobile Internet service in Srinagar and south Kashmir districts of Pulwama and Shopian while the speed was throttled to 2G in Budgam district.
An official said the service was barred in view of protests and shutdown called by the separatists over civilian and militant killings.
Seven civilians were killed after forces opened fire on protesters near the site of a gunfight in Kharpora Sarnoo village of Pulwama district today morning. Three militants and a soldier were killed in the gunfight.
Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) has called for a three-day shutdown and mourning in Kashmir and urged people to march towards the army base in Badami Bagh in Srinagar on Monday.
