Doda, Sep 12: Security was heightened in Doda district of Jammu and Kashmir on Friday, even as an uneasy calm prevailed over the mountainous region after authorities clamped prohibitory restrictions for the fourth consecutive day.Several people have been detained in Doda following violent clashes between security forces and protestors agitating against the arrest of Aam Aadmi Party MLA Mehraj Malik under the stringent Public Safety Act (PSA) earlier this week. The Doda MLA, who was arrested for disturbing the public order, was later lodged in Kathua jail.
\nOn Wednesday evening, police had held a peace committee meeting chaired by Deputy Inspector General of Police Shridhar Patil to expedite restoration of peace and normalcy in the region.
\nProhibitory orders remained in force in Doda and Bhalessa towns, where mobile internet and Wi-Fi services continued to remain suspended as a precautionary measure.
\n\u201cThe situation remained calm overnight with no fresh protests. However, elaborate security measures are in place, with heightened security in sensitive areas,\u201d said an official.
\nThe security has been beefed up and patrolling intensified in Doda town in view of the Friday prayers, he said.
\nThe deployment was strengthened around Doda town, Bhaderwah, Gandoh and Thathri amid high tensions over alleged administrative high-handedness. Concertina wires were installed near government offices to prevent untoward incidents.
\nPolice vehicles patrolled the area, making announcements urging residents to stay indoors.
\nIn Bhaderwah town nevertheless, a semblance of normalcy prevailed with shops and business establishments operating on Friday.DIG Shridhar Patil assured people that the situation is almost under control. \u201cWe want to tell the people of Chenab Valley that the situation is by and large under control. Efforts are on to bring back complete normalcy. We are moving towards that,\u201d the DIG told reporters on Thursday night.
\nHe said around 40 citizens from Doda city and surrounding areas participated in discussions at the meeting, during which they shared valuable suggestions.
\n\u201cI want to thank the people of Doda for their cooperation in ensuring peace. We had detained 60-70 people during the incident; several of them have been released on bonds. There are no casualties,\u201d he said.
\nThe district saw protests and violent clashes on Monday and Wednesday as protesters tried to defy restrictions, prompting the security personnel to resort to baton charges at several places. Several protesters were detained, while some of them were released later.
\nEight police personnel, including a deputy superintendent of police and a station house officer, were reportedly injured during the clashes.
\nThe chief education officer has ordered that all schools in the district will remain closed until Sunday. The business establishments would also remain shut.Describing Malik as a government critic, the district administration said his arrest was based on \u201cprovocative speeches and abusive language\u201d on social media, allegedly aimed at disturbing peace.
\nIn the meantime, Malik\u2019s father Shamas Din Malik has appealed for his son\u2019s release, stating he no longer wished to pursue the matter in courts. \u201cI want my son back. I met Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, who said he would see what he could do,\u201d he said.
\nShamas Udin, who was briefly hospitalised after collapsing from weakness and stress following his son\u2019s detention, apologised for the language used by his son and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to facilitate his release.
\nThe AAP has accused the Central government of targeting the party politically. At a protest in Jammu, AAP MP Sanjay Singh on Wednesday condemned the arrest, stating the party would continue its struggle \u201cagainst injustice on the streets, in Parliament, and if necessary, in the Supreme Court.\u201d
\nOn Thursday, high drama unfolded at Circuit House in Srinagar as former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah was prevented from meeting AAP\u2019s Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh, who was detained on the premises to prevent him from protesting against Malik\u2019s arrest.PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti on Thursday night described the situation in Doda as \u201cdeeply disturbing,\u201d criticising the administration\u2019s handling of the unrest.
\n\u201cAn internet blackout has been imposed, schools have been shut, and curfew has been enforced in Doda district. Alarming reports suggest that roads are being deliberately blocked, depriving people of their fundamental right to movement,\u201d she said.
\nThis is the first time a sitting MLA in Jammu and Kashmir has been taken into custody under the stringent law, which allows detention without charge or trial for up to two years in some cases.<\/p>\n
