Doda: The twin districts of Chenab Valley- Doda and Kishtwar observed a complete shutdown against ‘government backed’ RSS rallies and a show of solidarity with the suffering Kashmiri people.
The call for shutdown was forwarded by Majlis-e-Shoura committee that comprises Imams of various mosques and religious bodies.
