Valley observes shutdown

Life in the Kashmir Valley came to a standstill on Monday in wake of the strike call given by Majlis-e-Mashawarat, an amalgam of various separatist organizations.

Shops and business establishments remained closed and traffic was off the roads.

Valley has been tense after the death of a Pulwama youth, Muddasir Ahmed Malla, in Hyderabad on March 2.

MMM has called for Parigam chalo on March 5 Tuesday to express solidarity with Muddasir’s family.
