on the other hand, an 11th class student was martyred by Indian troops as normal life remains crippled on the 32nd consecutive day, on Thursday, in the Indian Occupied Kashmir (IoK) and five districts of occupied region. The student, Asrar Ahmed Khan, was injured in the pellet firing by Indian troops on demonstrations in Soura area of Srinagar a few days back and succumbed at a hospital in Srinagar, on Wednesday. The occupation authorities have further tightened curfew and other restrictions in Srinagar to prevent protests against the killing. The unprecedented curfew continues to render markets closed and public transport off the road since August 5 when Indian government repealed the special status of occupied Kashmir. Around 50,000 public transport vehicles are grounded while train service is suspended for over a month now. The Kashmir valley has no contact with the outside world for the past one month due to the continued blockade and suspension of internet, mobile and landline phones and closure of TV channels. The residents have been hit hard due to the shortage of all essential commodities including food, medicines and dairy items.
