After observing shutdown for 100 days, life has started limping back to normalcy in the militancy-hit Kashmir Valley with buses and cabs returning to the roads

After observing spontaneous shutdown for 100 days against scrapping of Article 370 and bifurcation of J&K State into two Union Territories, life has started limping back to normalcy in the militancy-hit Valley. For the first time since August 5, passenger buses were back on roads, leading to traffic jams in Srinagar on Wednesday. Shops and business establishments also remained open for the whole day in some areas of Kashmir. Passenger buses, mini-buses and cabs plied on most routes in uptown Srinagar. The buses were running overcrowded.
