Trader’s Federation Pampore  has called for a shutdown in the town on Thursday against the forces’ action,  who allegedly ransacked the public property, sources said.

”The forces damaged public property at Namblabal Pampore and roughed up many people”, President of the Pampore Traders Federation said.
