Reporting in Jammu & Kashmir: The Fear of Daily Duty
Reporting in Jammu & Kashmir transforms everyday journalism into a high-stakes challenge. Unlike non-conflict zones where routine reporting and asking tough questions are standard practice, in J&K, these actions can lead to police summons for "disturbing the peace." Digital privacy is non-existent, with laptops frequently seized without warrants.
Instead of simple defamation suits, journalists face serious anti-terror laws like UAPA and the Public Safety Act for their posts and articles. The abrupt 2022 shutdown of the Kashmir Press Club leaves these reporters without institutional support, fighting for truth in a heavily restricted environment.
