A peace rally was held in Jammu and Kashmir's Kishtwar district on Sunday, with participants raising slogans that called for maintaining communal harmony.
The rally was organised by the Army and the district administration.
District development commissioner, Angrez Singh Rana; commander of 9 Sector Rashtriya Rifles, Brigadier Vikram Bhan; and SSP Kishtwar, Shakti Kumar Pathak, flagged off the rally from Chowgan Ground, an official spokesperson said.
