The separatists in Jammu and Kashmir have called for a strike in the state on Monday.
The Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) comprising Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Mohammad Yasin Malik, has called for a complete shutdown in the state on Monday.
The strike has been called against the recent civilians' killings allegedly in the security forces firing.
A 23-year-old man was allegedly killed in security forces firing on Sunday after a group of stone pelters attacked them. The attack from the stone pelters followed when there was an encounter underway in Chedar Ban area of Qaimoh in Kulgam district of south Kashmir.
The separatist trio has also expressed serious concern over the relaunch of the operation against the militants and the cordon and search operation (CASO) in Kashmir, JRL (Joint Resistance Leadership) spokesperson said.
The ceasefire or the suspension of operation in Jammu and Kashmir was restored in the state after the break up of the PDP-BJP alliance.
Under the provision of Section 92 of the J&K Constitution, Governor's rule is imposed for six months, but only after the consent of the President of India.
