Srinagar, July 8: A tenuous peace prevailed in Srinagar and the Kashmir Valley with no major incident of violence reported on Thursday, as the army conducted flag marches for the second day to enforce the indefinite curfew imposed after several deaths when security forces fired on violent protesters.
“There was no relaxation in the indefinite curfew that was imposed here on Wednesday. People stayed indoors and the law and order situation was under control throughout the Valley,” a senior police officer told IANS on Thursday evening. “The curfew was imposed to protect civilian life and property from the designs of anti-social elements and it will not remain in force a minute longer than it is required,” he added.
