Martyrs day: J&K leaders claim they have been placed under house arrest

Political leaders in Jammu and Kashmir alleged house arrest. This prevented them from honoring 22 people killed by the Dogra army in 1931. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah likened the incident to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. Other leaders, including Mehbooba Mufti and Sajad Gani Lone, also protested restrictions. The Srinagar district administration denied permission for memorial gatherings.
