Srinagar: A day started normally after a long time in Kashmir Valley on Saturday as Hurriyat Conference (G), spearheading the ongoing “Quit Kashmir Movement,” suspended the strike for one day and authorities lifted the curfew.
Shops and business establishments reopened while traffic plied normally. However, government offices and banks remained closed in wake of a gazetted holiday on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti.
Pertinently, authorities since Eid-ul-Fitr authorities have been clamping curfew on the days which were exempted from the strike by Hurriyat (G). However, today no curfew was clamped.
