JAMMU: Authorities today gave a six-hour relaxation in curfew that was imposed on Sunday in Kishtwar district of Jammu and Kashmir following a stone pelting incident triggered by arrest of three separatists.
“We relaxed the curfew from 12 noon to 6 PM and everything remained normal during the hours of relaxation,” deputy commissioner (DC) Kishtwar GN Balwan told reporters.
He said the authorities have decided to again impose the curfew during the night though they might completely lift the restrictions tomorrow.
“Situation has remained normal after the curfew was imposed on Sunday and it has also remained peaceful during relaxation hours. We might review the situation and can decide to completely lift the curfew tomorrow morning so that schools and colleges and other offices start functioning normally,” Balwan said. (AGENCIES)
