Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, residents of Sochalyari village in Kupwara\u2019s Handwara area have complained of complete lack of mobile connectivity, saying they are facing severe hardships in the modern age of digital communication.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, locals said that while people around the world have access to 5G mobile internet, Sochalyari continues to remain without basic mobile signal.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to walk several kilometers to reach a specific place where our mobiles catch a signal, following which we make a call at the time of emergency. Rest of the time our mobiles are mere playing gadgets,\u201d a local resident said. He said students are the worst hit due to the absence of connectivity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe students of our area face most of the brunt due to lack of mobile connectivity. Students of different classes aren\u2019t able to clear their doubts online, and even those preparing for different SSB posts are suffering due to lack of mobile internet,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The residents have appealed to the concerned authorities to address the issue on priority so that the hardships being faced by the village can end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
