SRINAGAR, Jan 24: Taking a jibe at the Government over very low internet speed in J&K, former Chief Minister and National Conference (NC) vice president Omar Abdullah today said ‘come invest in J&K, we have the slowest internet in the country’ makes for a great advertising slogan.
Abdullah was reacting to a report, according to which J&K features at the bottom with lowest internet speed of 0.8 Mbps while Telangana tops that chat with 16.1 Mbps speed in the country.
“I almost didn’t see J&K because the average mobile Internet speed is so slow it barely makes a mark. Makes for a great advertising slogan ? ‘come invest in J&K, we have the slowest internet in the country’,” Abdullah wrote on micro-blogging site twitter.
