Poor cellular service irks Kupwara residents

Srinagar: In Indian illwegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, residents of Nagranar village in Rajwar area of Kupwara district have complained of poor mobile connectivity, saying the problem has persisted for years.

According to Kashmir Media Service, locals said they face severe difficulties in making calls due to weak network coverage in the area.

“We can barely make a phone call from our village,” a resident told the media. “The network remains weak most of the time.”

The residents said the situation becomes worse during emergencies. “We have to walk outside the village just to get a signal and make a call,” another villager said.

They demanded that a mobile tower be installed in the locality to improve voice and internet services.

Students said poor internet connectivity has also badly affected their education. “We are unable to attend online classes because the internet hardly works,” a student said.

The villagers have urged Deputy Commissioner Kupwara, Shrikant Balasaheb, and other concerned officials to intervene and resolve the issue at the earliest.
