SRINAGAR

While army is celebrating its infantry day, Kashmir is observing shutdown on separatists’ call Tuesday against the landing of army on this day in 1947.
While major trade activities remain crippled around valley, the usual rush of transport is off the roads.
It is pertinent to mention here that on this day in 1947, Delhi airlifted its forces to Srinagar after the last monarch of Kashmir, Maharaja Hari Singh “singed the conditional Instrument of Accession” with India.
“On this day, Indian forces landed in valley against the wishes of Kashmiris,” separatists maintain. It is for this reason that separatist camp – fighting for the rights to self determination of Kashmiris – observe October 27 as “Black Day”.
