Valley Under Darkness: Kashmir Blackout Alert

In an unexpected move, a blackout was enforced across the Kashmir Valley, including its summer capital, late Friday evening, according to officials.

The measures came hard on the heels of attacks in Jammu, which left locals anxious and rushing to their homes in a state of panic.

Police have urged residents to remain at home and turn off all lights, adding to the already tense atmosphere.
