Srinagar: Authorities on Saturday granted a family from Anantnag permission to travel on the Srinagar-Jammu highway on Sunday, one of the two days in a week when the government has banned civilian traffic on the thoroughfare to “secure” convoy movement.
The family, as reported by GNS on Friday, had to run from pillar to post to seek ‘permission’ for travelling to Doda to their son’s bride’s home.
