Earlier, the Vermont Senator on Saturday expressed his views on the current situation in Indian-occupied Kashmir, calling out India for an immediate lifting of the curfew as well as the communications blackout that has left the disputed territory isolated from the rest of the world.

“I am deeply concerned about this situation in Kashmir where the Indian government has revoked Kashmiri autonomy, cracked on dissent and instituted a communications blackout. The crackdown in the name of “security” is also denying the Kashmiri people access to medical care,” he said condemning India’s aggression towards the region.
