Jammu: Life is reportedly returning to normal in Jammu region on Saturday, where prohibitory orders were lifted in five districts and the curfew was relaxed in two others, while the situation remained peaceful in Kashmir Valley with increased traffic movement after some restrictions were eased, according to officials. Jammu and Kashmir police officer Imityaz Ali tweeted out two videos where people were seen moving freely on the streets of Srinagar, as they went about their daily life. In a video, medium to heavy traffic could be seen, as vehicles plyed on roads and highways at Lal Chowk, Jehangir Chowk, Baramulla and Dal Gate among other places in the state’s capital. Marketplaces and shops were open and were crowded with customers.
