The inhabitants of Jammu and Kashmir who are staying at J&K House, New Delhi have alleged that their cellular network and mobile internet are not working properly, giving tough times to them.

Brighter Kashmir received several phone calls from J&K House, New Delhi, wherein, everyone in a single voice has been seeking answers from the administration.

J&K House which is situated at Prithviraj Road, New Delhi consists of Residence of Hon’ble Lieutenant Governor, Office of Principal Resident Commissioner, Residence of Principal Resident Commissioner, Four VIP rooms, One Circuit House comprising 11 rooms and 2 Suites, Sub-Treasury, Office of Dy. Director Kashmir Bureau of Information, Extension counter of J&K Bank, Office of Asstt. Executive Engineer, PWD  and 39 Residential Quarters.

However, Jammu and Kashmir inhabitants are being forced to stay with poor network issues.

“I came here a few days back, but, believe me, I have to walk a few kilometres to make a phone call or even sent a message on Whatsapp”, Bashir Ahmad. Adding that he said, “It is the property of Jammu and Kashmir and see how are suffering”.

Another resident of Jammu and Kashmir said, “Had we been in a far-flung area of Kashmir, we would have understood, but, we are in the capital of India. It is New Delhi, how can there be a network issue here at J&K House”.

He further said, “I am trying to get in contact with my family members. But, either there is a call drop issue or the other person on the phone is not able to hear me, even if I scream. This is not done. Jammu and Kashmir administration should look into this”. “Even the internet is not working properly, we are thinking to shift somewhere else”, he said.

Despite repeated attempts, the officials at the Department of Hospitality and Protocol could not be contacted.
