The United States on Wednesday said that there is no change in its policy on Jammu and Kashmir.

"I want to be very clear there has been no change in US policy in the region," State Department Spokesperson Ned Price told reporters in view of a tweet from the South and Central Asia Bureau of the State Department which welcomed the resumption of 4G mobile internet in Jammu and Kashmir.

According to a Congressional Research Service report, a longstanding goal of US policy in South Asia has been to prevent India-Pakistan conflict from escalating to interstate war.
