Death toll in Kashmir unrest climbs to 56
The death toll in the on-going unrest in Kashmir following the killing of Hizbul commander Burhan Wani last month has increased to 56. Curfew remained in force in Srinagar to “foil the plans” of separatists to stage a two-day sit-in at the city centre. Further, services like public transport, banks, government offices, and internet services remained affected in the Valley.
