Govt orders WhatsApp, Telegram, other apps to block access without active SIM

Govt Orders SIM-Based Access for Messaging Apps: The Indian government has directed popular messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Snapchat, ShareChat, JioChat, Arattai and Josh to block access for users without an active SIM card, under the new Telecommunication Cybersecurity Amendment Rules 2025, marking the first time app-based communication services are regulated like telecom operators. Classified as Telecommunication Identifier User Entities (TIUEs), these apps must ensure continuous SIM linkage within 90 days, and users logged in via web browsers will be automatically logged out every six hours, requiring QR-based re-authentication. The Department of Telecommunications says the move aims to prevent misuse by criminals who currently exploit the ability to keep using apps even after deactivating or removing SIM cards, making fraud harder to trace. While telecom bodies argue the rule will reduce spam, scams and financial fraud by maintaining a verifiable link between user, device and mobile number, cybersecurity experts remain divided, noting forged SIM identities could still enable misuse.

“Humanity is alive”: Kashmir-based businessman offers one kanal of prized land to Kuldeep Sharma for his generous act

Srinagar: Moved by the act of generosity of Kuldeep Sharma, who offered five marlas of land to Arfaz Daing- a Jammu-based journalist whose house was demolished by the Jammu Development Authority (JDA) on Thursday- a Kashmiri businessman has come forward with an even bigger offer as a reciprocation of Sharma’s gesture.

The 46-year-old businessman, who does not want to be named, has offered a prized piece of land valued at around Rs one crore to Sharma as recognition of his philanthropic gesture. “I was moved by his gesture. At a time when people are fighting in the name of caste, creed, colour, and religion, Kuldeep Sharma has proved that humanity is alive,” said the businessman, who hails from Pampore town in South Kashmir, while speaking to news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO)

The businessman said he has already spoken to Sharma about his offer. “I spoke to him over the phone in the morning, and the moment I made the offer, he broke down in tears,” he recalled. “He told me he is not a rich man, yet he would do everything in his capacity to help Arfaz rebuild his home.”

He added that he is planning to visit Sharma’s house in the coming days to formally offer him the land. “Not just land, I am ready to give my blood to Sharma. I cannot believe such humans exist on this earth. He rose above religious lines to help a Muslim man,” the businessman said emotionally.

Moved by viral images of Arfaz’s elderly parents pleading with authorities and his young children watching helplessly, Kuldeep Raj Sharma had offered five marlas of his land to Arfaz on Friday for rebuilding the house razed to debris by the JDA.

“They demolished his home on three marlas of land, so I gifted him five marlas. If they demolish this one too, I will give him ten marlas. Even if I have to beg, I will rebuild his home. He is my brother, not a stranger,” Sharma was quoted as saying.
