Srinagar: Life remained affected in Kashmir Valley for the 110th consecutive day today due to the strike called by separatists, even as the summer capital continued to witness movement of private transport in some parts.
Over the past week, many people have started defying the separatist-sponsored strike as they are slowly picking up the threads of their lives affected by the nearly four month-long strike, officials said.
The flea market, which usually opens only on Sunday, was open today as well and many people went shopping for woolens and jackets in view of the approaching winter.
They said as the traffic in the city has significantly increased, additional traffic police personnel have been deployed at some intersections to ensure smooth flow of traffic.
Many shops were also open in the civil lines and the outskirts of the city, while many street vendors set up stalls at many places around the commercial hub of Lal Chowk.
