Jammu and Kashmir Police on Monday refuted rumors circulating on social media, asserting that there are no orders to effect any arrests, particularly related to court proceedings on Article 370.
A Police spokesperson said, “It is to clarify that police has no orders to effect any kind of arrest, and certainly not connected with court proceedings including on article 370 by the apex court.”
“There are no restrictions on any movement. Examinations as scheduled by different public bodies are being held as scheduled, businesses are open and transport is plying.”
“Common man’s normal life continues at its usual pace and police though alert about attempts of the handful always eager to disrupt peace, has no intention or instructions to curtail this freedom of movement and activities,” he said.
“People are urged to go about their lives and not get hassled or intimidated by social media posts contrary to this,” he said.
