Authorities on Sunday imposed curfew-like restrictions in old city areas of Srinagar to foil the proposed rally by Hurriyat Conference at Eidgah here to commemorate the death anniversary of separatist leaders Mirwaiz Muhammad Farooq and Abdul Gani Lone.
Elsewhere in Kashmir, the strike called by moderate Hurriyat affected normal life with most of the places registering partial to complete strike. An official spokesman said restrictions under Section 144 of the CrPC were imposed as a precautionary measure in five police station areas of the city.
