Srinagar: The government has lifted restrictions on Jammu and Kashmir. The curfew was withdrawn in all the twenty-two districts of the state during the day.
However, mobile phone control will continue. The release of house arrest leaders is yet to be decided. Control will be continuing overnight.
Meanwhile, the apex court has decided to hear the arguments on October 1 in the petitions against the repeal of Article 370 of the Indian Constitution. The five-member Constitution Bench is hearing. The petitions will be considered by a constitutional bench chaired by Justice NV Ramana.
Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir, was repealed on August 5. In 1954, Article 370 of the Jammu and Kashmir was added to the Constitution of India.
