Abstract

This research paper aims to provide an in-depth analysis of media censorship in the region of Jammu and Kashmir, with a special focus on the period following the abrogation of Article 370 of the Indian Constitution. Article 370 granted special autonomous status to the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The revocation of this article in August 2019 led to significant changes in the political, social, and media landscape of the region. This paper examines the various forms of media censorship employed by the authorities and analyzes their impact on freedom of expression, press freedom, and the right to information in Jammu and Kashmir. It also explores the implications of media censorship on public perception, democracy, and the role of the media in conflict zones.
