‘The Free the Press the More Democratic a Country’ – Anuradha Bhasin talks to Kashmir Unheard

Our Community Correspondent goes one-on-one with Anuradha Bhasin, Executive Editor of the Daily Kashmir Times newspaper, in connection with the situation of freedom of the press in Jammu and Kashmir. Bhasin has been working for one of the oldest newspapers of Jammu and Kashmir. She is a strong supporter of press freedom and has been in news for being a critic of the Modi government. She petitioned in the supreme court for revoking the curbs on communication put in place after the abrogation of Article 370 in J&K. It was due to her plea that the GOI restored 2g data internet services in the locked-down region of Kashmir.
