Authorities on Friday did not allow congregational prayers in main mosques in Kashmir including Jamia Masjid, Srinagar.
The roads leading to the grand mosque(Jamia Masjid sgr), manned by a posse of police and paramilitary have been protected by drop-gates and concertina wires, thus preventing people movement around.
Strict curfew was in place to prevent people from reaching to main mosques in Srinagar, Baramulla, Sopore, Anantnag and other district headquarters.
