Traders at the Lal Chowk here shut their establishments on Saturday to protest against reported harassment of Kashmiri students outside the state.

They also carried out a march demanding protection for all Kashmiris, including students studying outside the state.

The Kashmir Traders Federation, an organisation of local traders and businessmen, has called for a protest shutdown in the Valley on Sunday in solidarity with Kashmiris living outside the Valley and with students and professionals.
