A complete shutdown was observed across Jammu and Kashmir on Monday. Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) has called for a two-day strike as Supreme Court is scheduled to hear a PIL challenging the validity of the Article 35A today.

Various organisations including Bar Association, transporters and traders’ bodies have extended their support to the shutdown call of the JRL on Article 35A. Security forces are put on high alert across Kashmir Valley to foil any protest and maintain law and order situation in Kashmir Valley.
