Srinagar/June,3: A complete shutdown is being observed in Anantnag town of south Kashmir today against the alleged highhandedness of the government forces.
A traders’ body had called for the strike and protests against the “highhandedness and excesses of the forces.”
All shops and other business establishments are closed in the town.
