Due to the ongoing clampdown in the valley, whats happening in the valley has been an absolute mystery.
While BBC and Al-Jazeera came up with videos of protests at different parts of Kashmir, most of the National media channels simply denounced the credibility of the videos and the news.
Indian authorities and media have been claiming that things are smooth inside the valley. However they did accept the killing of one youth protester who jumped into the Jhelum after he was chased by the policemen.
The international media has been claiming that things aren’t VERY WELL. Pakistan based media channels including the DNA said that Six Youths have been killed till date.
The Kashmiriyat Team was able to speak with a few students from different parts of downtown area in Srinagar
