    A netizen tweeted: "Blackout in Kashmir means no one knows if their families are safe. Elsewhere in India: TikTok is teeming with desperate men asserting 'victory' by claiming they can now 'get girls' from Kashmir."

     

    Actress Swara Bhaskar replied to the tweet, saying: "Disgusting lack of decency and humanity."
