| Meta, Facebook, and Instagram Must Uphold Freedom of Expression | | J&K Government Must Stop Censoring Media: Mehbooba Mufti |
Srinagar, March 03 (Scoop News)-PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti has expressed deep concern over the recent censorship of news organisations such as @GreaterKashmir, @KashmirLife, and @RisingKashmir, whose Facebook and Instagram pages have been taken down. Such actions not only silence legitimate voices but also undermine the fundamental right to freedom of expression. The Jammu & Kashmir government must also immediately end any censorship of media in the region.
These outlets are recognised for their professional standards, and removing them from digital platforms weakens the availability of verified and reliable information to the public. When established media voices are sidelined, the resulting void is often filled by obscure or unreliable sources, which can distort public discourse and erode trust in journalism.
In the interest of transparency, responsible journalism, and democratic accountability, Mehbooba Mufti urges @AshwiniVaishnaw, @GoI_MeitY, @OfficeOfLGJandK, and @CM_JnK to review the situation urgently and reinstate these accounts. Upholding press freedom is essential for a healthy democracy and maintaining public trust.
