Srinagar, July 14 : Life returned to normal in the Kashmir valley today after general strike, restrictions, preventive arrests and house arrests, when the Martyrs of July 13, 1931 were remembered.
Shops and business establishments reopened this morning and traffic on all routes was plying, leading to frequent traffic jams on majority roads, where the traffic lights have not been installed.
Government offices, banks, other financial institutions and educational institutions, which were closed yesterday due to holiday, were also functioning normally. Restrictions imposed in entire downtown and Shehar-e-Khas (SeK), particularly in and around Martyrs graveyard at Naqashband Sahib, have also been lifted. Additional security forces deployed in the city, including Maisuma, where the headquarters of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) is located, had also been withdrawn. Barring chairman of the breakaway Hurriyat Conference (HC) Syed Ali Shah Geelani, all the separatist leaders, including moderate hurriyat chairman Moulvi Omar Farooq, JKLF chief Mohammad Yaseen Malik, Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) Shabir Ahmad Shah, senior separatist leader Nayeem Ahmad Khan, Javid Ahmad Mir, Hilal Ahmad War and others who were taken into preventive custody or put under house arrest have also been released.
The separatist leaders were taken into preventive custody or put under house arrest to prevent them from going to Martyrs graveyard to pay home.
A spokesman of the HC said Mr Geelani was taken to his Hyderpora residence from police station Humhama last evening.
However, he was again put under house arrest and was not being allowed to move out, he said.
