Srinagar, November 9
Barring stray clashes between protesters and the police resulting in injuries to nearly 10 protesters, the overall situation remained peaceful on day 124 of the current unrest across the Kashmir valley today.
There were reports of clashes from the Tahab and Litter areas of Pulwama district in south Kashmir while the police foiled a protest march against the detention of a youth in the Gund area of Ganderbal district in central Kashmir. At least six persons were injured in the clashes between protesters and police in Tahab village of Pulwama district after a protest march was foiled by the police. At least three other persons were injured in the clashes when the police foiled a march to Litter in Pulwama.
Elsewhere, the situation remained peaceful even as the life continued to remain affected due to the shutdown called by separatists, which has been continuing since the trouble started following the killing militant Burhan Wani on July 8.
Amid restrictions in Srinagar and towns, deployment of police and CRPF personnel was made in sensitive areas of the Valley.
There was a semblance of normalcy in the summer capital and other major towns with the beginning of the “relaxation period” of 15 hours at 4 pm.
