In a bid to regain voters’ support, Chief Minister of Indian Administered Jammu and Kashmir has announced new pro youth policies, lifting a four-year ban on SMS services and giving a fresh breath to the people of the turmoil-hit district.

“One fails to understand why the government first bans these services and later revoke the same,” Mukthiar Ahmad Malik, a businessman of South Kashmir, told OnIslam.net.

“The decision would have not been taken if the ruling alliance would have not faced jolt in the recently held elections,” he added, noting that the revocation of the services would help the ruling National conference is assembly elections

Earlier in May, Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah announced a new decision to revoke a four-year ban on Short Messaging Services (SMS).

The ban was originally imposed in June 2010 following a widespread unrest in the valley. However, six months later the government lifted the ban on all post-paid mobile phone subscribers but refrained from withdrawing it on pre-paid cell phones.

“The decision was taken after the chief minister received continuous requests from the Pre-Paid Cell phone users,” official spokesman informed the reporters, adding, all concerned agencies were directed to lift ban on the SMS services.

“SMS services were banned in the Indian administered Jammu and Kashmir after ‘Pro-Freedom’ protests erupted in June 2010 apprehending misuse of the SMS in instigating protests and spreading rumours,” He added.

For many Kashmiris, Abdulllah’s decision came in a bid to regain the support of the people ahead of the assembly polls stated later this year after humiliating defeat in parliamentary general elections.
