Joy in Srinagar, curfew in Jammu
July 02, 2008
The forest land allotment controversy erupted soon after the state cabinet took a decision in May last to transfer 100 acres of land to SASB for raising temporary structures to facilitate the yatra.
The decision led to opposition from various separatist groups who demanded the immediate revocation of the order. There were angry clashes between police and demonstrators in Jammu, prompting authorities to impose a curfew in some areas.
