Around 190 primary schools in the Valley reopened on Monday after a forced two-week break, but attendance was uniformly thin amid growing uncertainty fuelled by multiple incidents of stonepelting and the appearance of posters in several localities calling for an indefinite shutdown.
Sources said youths suspected to be members of separatist groups were behind the posters that were pasted overnight on walls across neighbourhoods in Srinagar, challenging the administration's attempt to restore normalcy. The posters talk of mass resistance to the nullification of Article 370 that took away J&K's special status and advise people to step out only once in the morning or evening to stock up on essential commodities.
