"We have inputs of large scale violence so as mark of preventive measure restrictions will be imposed in major areas across the Valley, particularly in the congested old Srinagar," the official said. Meanwhile curfew was re-clamped in some areas of downtown here following large-scale violence, whereas around 400 persons were injured in the clashes across the Valley, report said.
Authorities had lifted curfew and restrictions from the entire Valley on Wednesday, August 31 after 53 days since the unrest started on July 8, in the wake of killing of militant commander Burhan Muzaffar Wani and his two associates.
