Omar Abdullah, Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, said that internet restrictions imposed in parts of Delhi ahead of a CJP protest resemble the "Kashmir model" of curbs, suggesting the tactic has been exported to the national capital. He made the remark while criticising the curbs, and some outlets also noted his push for Jammu and Kashmir to attract Global Capability Centres. The comment sparked discussion across left, center, and right-leaning outlets about the comparison between Delhi's actions and Kashmir's past internet shutdowns.

The Times of India frames his remark as saying New Delhi is modelled after the new J&K, linking the internet curbs for the CJP protest to policies previously used in Jammu and Kashmir.
