Srinagar, Oct 15 (IBNS): Prepaid mobile phone services were restored across Kashmir on Saturday after remaining suspended for 98 days. However, mobile Internet services and WIMAX remain suspended.

The Jammu and Kashmir government suspended prepaid mobile services across Kashmir on July 8 evening, after the killing of Hizb militant leader Burhan Wani along with three associates in an encounter with government forces in Bamdoora area of Kokernag of South Kashmir.

On October 14 , in an official statement, the police said: “With the improvement in the situation prepaid mobile services are being restored from tonight (Friday).”

Mobile Internet services were snapped across the valley during the time of the unrest and are yet to be restored.
