Abstract
This article focuses on how the COVID-19 lockdown intersects with academic freedom in the disputed Himalayan territory of Jammu and Kashmir. The Bhartiya Janata Party, the ruling right-wing party of India, has used COVID-19 to actively isolate Kashmir curtailing educational rights and opportunities. Punitive internet blockades and the state’s surveillance technologies associated with prolonged military occupation affect educational access.
