Jammu : The Shri Amarnath Sangarsh Samiti (SASS) today started its three-day 'jail bharo andolan' as authorities lifted curfew on Monday in Kishtwar, Jammu and Udhampur districts and relaxed it for nine hours in Samba district.

Hundreds of people gathered in the city following a bandh called by the SASS which has been spearheading the agitation for the past 51 days.

Over one lakh people demanding transfer of nearly 100 acres of land to the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board (SASB) are likely to court arrest, said SASS spokesman Narinder Singh. Police said curfew was relaxed today from 5 am to 8 pm in Kishtwar, Jammu and Udhampur districts.

"In Kishtwar, which witnessed violence last week, there was no untoward incident and curfew has been relaxed for the day. However, tension is still high," Deputy Commissioner Sudershan Kumar said.

Samba and Jammu have been under curfew for the past 18 days while Udhampur has been facing curfew restrictions for the past 13 days. The curfew was relaxed today from 5 am to 2 pm in Samba district.
