Police said that situation remained peaceful in Srinagar including the areas where curfew remained imposed. “No untoward incident was reported from any place,” a police spokesman said.
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Srinagar, Syed Aashiq Hussain Bukhari told Greater Kashmir that restrictions would continue in these areas on Monday.
