Separatist leaders, who were steering the last year’s summer unrest and continued to issue protest calendars, today announced significant relaxation and called for a one-day shutdown in the next fortnightly calendar which begins tomorrow and ends on February 28.
The separatist leaders, Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Yasin Malik, who have been jointly issuing protest calendars, have called for a shutdown on February 24. The calendar also details protests and demonstrations from February 16 to 28.
The separatists have also called for peaceful protests throughout the Kashmir valley on Friday. “Keeping in view the three-day strike in the past week, it has been decided that there will be no strike this Friday,” the separatist leaders said.
The separatists, however, said there would be no relaxation on Friday next week and peaceful protests would be held after the midday prayers throughout the Valley. They also appealed to the transporters and traders to hold a sit-in for an hour on Saturday this week and next week.
