Srinagar, July 08: Curfew was clamped in more areas of the Kashmir Valley which witnessed stray attempts at violence as the Army carried out a flag march in Srinagar for the second day today.
Simultaneously, Centre sent out a tough message that “anti-nationals and vested interests” creating unrest in the valley would be dealt with sternly.
If the situation remains peaceful, authorities may relax curfew for a few hours tomorrow and on Saturday to allow people to participate in religious prayers.
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has convened an all-party meeting in Srinagar on Monday to discuss present situation.
Sopore town and old parts of Baramulla were placed under curfew as a precautionary measure, official sources said.
Curfew was also being enforced strictly in Srinagar, where three persons were killed in alleged firing by security forces on Tuesday.
