Unnecessary curbs

Banning means of communication in the name of Security is not justified. Two years back SMS service was banned and now government of India is trying to take away internet from the Kashmiris. First steps have been taken by blocking Facebook and Youtube. On one hand Government of India makes loud claims about the removal of trust deficit among people of Kashmir and on the other hand they make people of Kashmir aliens in their own land by enforcing these curbs. Blocking youtube and facebook in the name of security is unjustified. If they really care about security, they should advance their tracking technology instead of taking these repressive measures.
