Monday's restrictions paralysed life across Kashmir, where martyrs' day is being observed.

Chief Minister Omar Abdullah visited the martyrs' graveyard early Monday along with senior state government officers to offer tributes.

Police arrested a group of Hurriyat activists who tried to march towards Lal Chowk.

Mirwaiz Umer Farooq continues to remain under house arrest at his Nagin residence.

Police and CRPF used teargas and baton charges to disperse stone pelting mobs in the Jamia masjid area in the old city early Monday.

No movement is being allowed in old city areas, which are generally considered strong holds of Mirwaiz Umer Farooq.
