According to a statement issued here, the shutdown call has been given against the killings of two militants, a civilian and injuring of dozens of protesters at the hands of government forces.

Two militants including Abu Dujana and Arif Lelhari were killed in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district during a gunfight with forces.
A civilian was also killed in force’s action against the protesters.
The killings were followed by massive protests at many places leaving scores injured.
The JRL also asked people to offer funeral prayers in absentia for two militants and a civilian killed in a gunfight in Pulwama.
