Amarnath land row: Jammu shuts down
JAMMU: A day after the J&K government decided to scrap the controversial land transfer to the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB) which sparked off protests across the valley, the saffron brigade forced a complete shutdown in Jammu on Monday. The bandh call was given by BJP and its allies against what they called "the politicization and surrender of the state government to separatist forces on the issue of allotment of land to SASB". Shops, schools and colleges were closed while roads were deserted. There was thin attendance in government and private offices.
