Curfew continues for second day in J-K | Curfew remained in force for the second consecutive day on Sunday in violence-hit Kashmir valley following the
death of six persons in firing by security forces since Friday. The roads were deserted, as the security personnel patrolled the streets of Srinagar city. Several
neighborhoods in Srinagar and other towns like Baramulla, Sopore and Anantnag
have been completely sealed as paramilitary and police personnel patrolled the
streets to prevent civilian mobilization and further demonstrations. Vehicular
traffic and movement have been completely restricted by security officials. Earlier
on Saturday, curfew remained in force in several parts of Kashmir, including Srinagar
after two youngsters were killed during police firing in the Sopore region of
the Kashmir Valley. At least 19 people have been killed in the clashes between
protesters and security forces since June 11. |
